A free, open-source Binary Collision Approximation (BCA) code for ion-material interactions including sputtering, implantation, and reflection
**Description** A handful of NaNs were produced using the following mesh with large numbers of computational ions when ions initially at the top of the mesh hit the bottom of...
**Description** In the Bohdansky formula located in scripts/formulas.py, the factor R_Rp, which is R/Rp, should instead be (R_Rp)^(-1), that is, Rp/R. **Additional context** Interestingly, for many targets this makes the...

This input: ``` electronic_stopping_correction_factors = [] ``` Produces the no-context error of: ``` Processing 10 ions... Initializing with 4 threads... [00:00:00][----------------------------------------][00:00:00] 0% thread 'main' panicked at src\geometry.rs:419:26: index out of...
**Description** A recent paper presented high-quality implantation distributions and reflection coefficients (in the form of deposition rates, that is, D = 1 - R) for D on Be. At low...
There seems to be a rare event at high energies (>10 keV) for the Kr-C-Morse combined potential that causes an infinite loop. I suspect a value is going to +/-INF...
Shermukhamedov et al. have a paper out on relatively low-energy H, D, and T sputtering and reflection using MD with neural-network potentials. This could be a decent target for benchmarking...
**Description** This paper: https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/2053-1591/ace41c by Hofsäss et al. introduces a new BCA code, IMINTDYN , and performs a specific experimental validation (they call it a verification) of scattering. IMINTDYN includes...
**Description** A new paper (12/23) by P. Yu. Babenko and A. N. Zinoviev has been published with nuclear stopping powers calculated from DFT potentials. A main finding is that potentials...
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.** Currently, a user has the choice of four electronic stopping models: Oen-Robinson, Lindhard-Scharff (with optional correction), Equipartition (with optional Lindhard-Scharff...
