Nonlinear theory of ion stopping in classical plasmas: Application to the Barkas effect
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 09 March 2009
Abstract
A nonlinear theory of ion stopping in classical ideal plasmas is formulated on the basis of formalism of higher-order dielectric functions accounting for nonlinear relationship between polarisation and electric fields generated in plasma by the projectile ion. Corrections to the linear theory corresponding to the Barkas effect are evaluated explicitly. The result differs (what concerns the numerical coefficient) from that following from the harmonic oscillator model.
