This paper presents theoretical results for the influence of plasma
electron-electron collisions in correlated proton stopping forces. First
calculations of the effects of these collisions on the vicinage forces for
plasma matter are shown. In particular, these effects are studied in a
Te = 10 eV and n = 1023
cm−3 plasma yielding a self-retarding proton force
increased more than 11% at maximum value. Also vicinage forces enhances
more than 15% in the analyzed cases. All this implies that plasma
electron-electron collisions play an important role both in non and
correlated ion stopping and must be considered for any application of ion
energy deposition in plasma matter.
