Abstract:The electronic stopping power is an observable property that quantifies the ability of swift ions to penetrate matter to transfer energy to the electron cloud. The recent literature has proven the value of Real-Time Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory to accurately evaluate this property from first-principles, but questions remain regarding the capability of computer codes relying on atom-centered basis functions to capture the physics at play. In this Perspective, we draw attention to the fact that irrad… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
