Energy Loss in the Interaction of Atomic Particles with Solid Surfaces

Recent studies on the energy loss of atomic particles interacting with solid surfaces are reviewed. Different approximations for the treatment of the screening and scattering are presented and their validity in the different coupling regimes is discussed. Illustrative comparisons with available experiments are provided.
