Figure 4 Linhard et al. [32,33] proposed a theory (Linhard, Scharff and Shigtt theory abbreviated as LSS the- ory) that developed a comprehensive concept of atomic stopping. By using a differential cross-section based on Thomas-Fermi potential between the atoms, LSS theory gives a relationship for nuclear stop- ping in terms of dimensionless length p, and energy ¢. These two quantities are defined as: where do(E, T) is the differential scattering cross-section at energy E, involving an energy transfer be- tween the transfer limits Tand T+ dT. Tin is the minimum energy transfer whereas T,, represents the upper limit for energy transfer. T and do(E, T) depend upon the interaction potential V (Tr) between the two particles.
