Abstract :
A study of the energy loss spectra of electrons transmitted through aluminum foil was carried out. Inelastic interactions of electrons with the conduction band as well as inner shells of aluminum have been considered. Energy loss spectra were computed for several monoenergetic electron sources and film thicknesses. Theoretical results have been compared with available experimental data.
