Hello.
I'm writing a package for a TPC experiment using FairROOT.
Recently we found that the energy loss of proton and alpha doesn't match to the TRIM/LISE++ result.
So, I posted a thread in GEANT4 electromagnetic process mailing list,
but it comes to my mind that it might be more related to the FairROOT forum so I registered.
I put the copy of the post in GEANT4 electromagnetic process mailing list.
If you have any comments or recommendation or hints, please let me know.
Anything would be helpful
Thank you in advance.

Hello.
I'm currently writing a simulation package for an experiment.
Prior to using it, we're checking if the energy loss of proton and alpha is the same as the other simulation.
We're comparing GEANT4 energy loss data with TRIM/LISE++ data.
Attached links are proton and alpha energy loss plot with TRIM/LISE++ result.

As you can see, in relatively low energy, energy loss curves doesn't match each other.
We couldn't find what the problem is.
Currently, we're writing our code on top of FairROOT package.
So, GEANT4 is steered over G4VMC interface.
Cuts used for running simulation is following.
If you have any clue or comments or recommendation, please don't hesitate to mail us.
Anything could be helpful
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
