The recent work of Anholt (1979) on K-vacancy production by relativistic projectiles has been applied to calculate the stopping power of the K electrons. The results show that for protons of energy ~10³ GeV and heavy target elements, the relativistic contributions to the stopping power amount to several times the results due to the longitudinal terms obtained from Walske's (1956) work.
