Popis: In this paper we present the theoretical models and the numerical codes that have been developed in our group for determining the energy deposition profile of swift heavy ions in dense plasmas. Details of our semi-classical calculations of cross-sections related to the interaction between heavy ions and bound electrons in the intermediate velocity regime are also given. We analyze the differences and similarities in dealing with either a plasma or a neutral target and present results of our calculations in cases exhibiting a significant influence of atomic collisions on the energy loss process.
