Abstract
We present ab initio calculations of the electronic differential energy-transfer cross sections for antiprotons with energies between 3 keV and 1 MeV interacting with helium. By comparison with simulations employing the mean-field description based on the single-active electron approximation we are able to identify electron correlation effects in the stopping and straggling cross sections. Most remarkably, we find that straggling exceeds the celebrated Bohr straggling limit when correlated shake-up processes are included.
