Abstract
By making use of the linear-response dielectric theory and local electron density approximation, we calculate the electronic stopping cross section and energy straggling of protons in metals. The correlation and exchange interaction of electron gas in metals is taken into consideration by introducing a local-field-correction function in the dielectric function. The theoretical results are compared with experimental and empirical data, as well as with other previous theoretical results.
