Improved gold ion stripping at 0.1 and 10  GeV/nucleon for the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider

Improved gold ion stripping at 0.1 and 10  GeV/nucleon for the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider

The four electron stripping stages leading to fully stripped gold ions in the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) are briefly described. The third stripper, which removes 46 electrons from the Au^{31+} ions leading to heliumlike Au^{77+}, offers the greatest challenges in terms of energy loss and...
