Abstract
The shell correction in the stopping force on a point charge is shown to consist of two distinct contributions, a kinematic correction for the neglect of orbital motion and a mathematical correction for an asymptotic expansion limited to high projectile speed. The latter can be identified by separating Bloch’s expression for the stopping number into the classical Bohr contribution and an inverse-Bloch correction.
