The aim of this work is to present an overview of the stopping power of ions in matter based on newdevelopments in the stopping power database of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) [1].This exhaustive collection of experimental data, graphs, programs and comparisons, is the legacy ofHelmut Paul [2] who made it accessible to the global scientific community, and has been extensivelyemployed in theoretical and experimental research during the last 30 years. The field of stoppingpowers in matter is continously evolving (some examples in [3-8]) with new trends in materials ofinterest, including oxides, polymers, and biological targets. Our goal is to identify areas of interest andemerging data needs to meet the requirements of a continuously developing user community.[1] https://www-nds.iaea.org/stopping/. Original webpage by H.
