Time-dependent density functional theory coupled with molecular dynamics is used to study electronic excitations produced by energetic protons %($\mathrm{H^+}$)
in solid copper %$\mathrm{Cu}$
over a wide range of proton
velocities. velocities $v = 0.01--10~\mathrm{a.u.}$.
A plane-wave pseudopotential scheme is employed to solve the time-dependent Kohn-Sham equations for a moving ion %$\mathrm{H^+}$ ion
in a periodic %$\mathrm{Cu}$
crystal.
These electronic excitations determine the stopping power of the material and alter the interatomic forces for both channeling and off-channeling trajectories.
Our off-channeling results are in quantitative agreement with experiments, and at low velocity they unveil a crossover region of superlinear velocity dependence (with exponent $\sim 1.5$) in the velocity range $v = 0.1-0.3~\mathrm{a.u.}$ that we associate to the copper crystalline electronic band structure.
