Stopping power of plasma free and bound electrons using dielectric formalism.

In this work, a method is proposed that accounts for the stopping power of free and bound electrons of a partially ionized plasma. To formulate this method, the well-known dielectric formalism is used, combining a dielectric function of quantum plasmas, which includes temperature, for free electrons...
