Fast projectile stopping power of two-dimensional strongly correlated electron liquids

Strongly Correlated Electrons 2007-10-16 v1

Abstract

We study the high-velocity-projectile limit of the polarizational contribution to the in-plane stopping power in a strongly coupled two-dimensional electron liquid. The dielectric formalism based on the method of moments is employed. The frequency moments of the loss function are calculated using the model Hamiltonian including the two-dimensional Coulomb interaction potential proportional to the inverse power of k. We prove that the leading term of the high-velocity asymptote, like in the random-phase approximation, is not affected by correlations.
