Local-field corrections in the calculation of electronic stopping power

Abstract

Energy losses of slow protons in a degenerate electron gas are calculated on the basis of the dielectric theory. The influence of various longitudinal dielectric functions is examined. It is shown that the correlations lead to the decrease of the energy losses in comparison to those stopping power calculations, where only the exchange effects are taken into account. The comparison of the results to the available experimental ones shows a very good agreement.
