Phys. Rev. A 54, 5031–5036 (1996)Wake effects on the energy loss as a function of the scattering angle for thin-film-transmitted H2 + ionsReceived 30 May 1996; published in the issue dated December 1996 We calculated the mean energy loss as a function of the exit angle for 100 and 400 keV/amu H2 + ions transmitted through thin carbon foils. The results showed that at 100 keV the energy loss exhibited a maximum in the forward direction as opposed to that of protons, which had a minimum at zero degree ejection angle. Our studies demonstrate that such a difference stems from the wake or polarization forces acting upon the trailing ion in the cluster. © 1996 The American Physical Society. © 1996 The American Physical Society URL:
