Very-high-energy (VHE), heavy ions are of particular interest for single event effects (SEEs) testing due to their combination of high linear energy transfer (LET) and high penetration within electronics components. The dosimetry of such beams poses an important challenge for facilities aiming to provide VHE ions for radiation effects testing. In this article, ion beam dosimetry using a silicon solid state detector is presented for uranium ions in the 100&#x2013;1000 MeV per nucleon kinetic energy range. The study involves a combination of experimental measurements carried out at the SIS18 accelerator at Gesellschaft f&#x00FC;r Schwerionenforschung (GSI) and Monte Carlo (MC) simulation studies using FLUktuierende KAskade (FLUKA). Particular emphasis was put on the physical basis of interaction between both primary beam particles as well as secondary fragments, and the detector device. Our results demonstrate an excellent capability of understanding key beam properties and extracting the LET through comparison with simulation results. This benchmark study acts as a reference for developing and utilizing a heavy ion electronics testing infrastructure currently under development at Conseil Europ&#x00E9;en pour la Recherche Nucl&#x00E9;aire (CERN).
