Lifetimes of Shockley electrons and holes at the Cu(111) surface
M. G. Vergniory, J. M. Pitarke, S. Crampin
A theoretical many-body analysis is presented of the electron-electron inelastic lifetimes of Shockley electrons and holes at the (111) surface of Cu. For a description of the deca…
Acoustic surface plasmons in the noble metals Cu, Ag, and Au
V. M. Silkin, J. M. Pitarke, E. V. Chulkov +1
We have performed self-consistent calculations of the dynamical response of the (111) surface of the noble metals Cu, Ag, and Au. Our results indicate that the partially occupied s…
Time-Dependent Density-Functional Theory for the Stopping Power of an Interacting Electron Gas for Slow Ions
V. U. Nazarov, J. M. Pitarke, C. S. Kim +1
Based on the time-dependent density-functional theory, we have derived a rigorous formula for the stopping power of an {\it interacting} electron gas for ions in the limit of low p…
Variational approach to the scattering of charged particles by a many-electron system
V. U. Nazarov, S. Nishigaki, J. M. Pitarke +1
We report a variational approach to the nonlinearly screened interaction of charged particles with a many-electron system. This approach has been developed by introducing a modific…
