In recent times, the development of time-dependent methods have enhanced the diverse study of many body problems involving the slowing down of charged particles either in matters or gases[ref.] The time dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) on the other hand has enjoyed much consideration owing to its electron dynamics both self-consistency and non-perturbative way. [put more paper references here].  This paper involves an application of Most recently Correa et al [Ref] have reported  the TDDFT role of radiation damage in ion-solid interactions. They have shown  thatembodies a plane-wave basis set for representing  the electron dynamics(put prl, 39,40) accurately for proton impact collisions on electronic excitations due to molecular dynamics are quite different from the adiabatic outcome. The inclusion of non adiabatic effects in real calculations remains  a copper surface. We challenging problem even today. In 1994 Schleife et al  have tested calculated [Ref.]  the strength electronic stopping by H and He projectile including non-adiabatic interactions employing first principles descriptions. TIt was observed that role  of this off-channeling trajectories enhances the agreement with the experimental results. Using a quantal  method to evaluate based on TDDFT, Quijada et al [Ref.] have studied  the electronic energy loss of protons anf anti-protons moving inside metalic Al and obtained good results for the projectile-target energy transfer over a wider energy range. Recently Haque et al [REF.} have calculated  stopping $\mathrm(S_e)$. Our findings are compared cross sections for various media  with those due atomic number Z=2  to stopping 100 using realistic electron density with four fitted parameters  and range of ions obtained close agreement (~15\%) with the SRIM data. However, their parametrized model, explains the projectile energy loss  in matter (SRIM) as well as available experimental values. various stopping media reasonably well.  We report here an application of the TDDFT that embodies a plane-wave basis set that represent accurately the electron dynamics(put prl, 39,40) for proton impact collision of Cu surface. We have tested the strength of this method to evaluate the electronic stopping $\mathrm(S_e)$. Our findings are compared with those due to stopping and range of ions in matter (SRIM) as well as available experimental values.
