Abstract

We present real-time time-dependent density-functional-theory calculations of the electronic stopping power for negative and positive projectiles (electrons, protons, antiprotons, and muons) moving through liquid water. After correction for finite mass effects, the nonlinear stopping power obtained in this paper is significantly different from the previously known results from semiempirical calculations based on the dielectric response formalism. Linear-nonlinear discrepancies are found both in the maximum value of the stopping power and the Bragg peak's position. Our results indicate the importance of the nonlinear description of electronic processes, particularly, for electron projectiles, which are modeled here as classical point charges. Our findings also confirm the expectation that the quantum nature of the electron projectile should substantially influence the stopping power around the Bragg peak and below. © 2023 authors.

Impact and social visibility

From the perspective of influence or social adoption, and based on metrics associated with mentions and interactions provided by agencies specializing in calculating the so-called "Alternative or Social Metrics," we can highlight as of 2025-06-13:

  • The use, from an academic perspective evidenced by the Altmetric agency indicator referring to aggregations made by the personal bibliographic manager Mendeley, gives us a total of: 3.
  • The use of this contribution in bookmarks, code forks, additions to favorite lists for recurrent reading, as well as general views, indicates that someone is using the publication as a basis for their current work. This may be a notable indicator of future more formal and academic citations. This claim is supported by the result of the "Capture" indicator, which yields a total of: 3 (PlumX).

With a more dissemination-oriented intent and targeting more general audiences, we can observe other more global scores such as:

  • The Total Score from Altmetric: 4.3.
  • The number of mentions on the social network X (formerly Twitter): 6 (Altmetric).

It is essential to present evidence supporting full alignment with institutional principles and guidelines on Open Science and the Conservation and Dissemination of Intellectual Heritage. A clear example of this is:

  • The work has been submitted to a journal whose editorial policy allows open Open Access publication.
