Stopping powers are relevant to a wide range of applications, such as ion beam analysis,deposition ranges, ion implantation, and radiation damage. Reliable values ofstopping powers are also needed in isotope production for medical applications, in fusiontechnologies and detector development. In this talk, the state of the art of the stopping powerof ions in matter will be discussed. I will present an overview of existing models, numericalcodes available online, and measurements (existing, missing and/or necessary), based onmy work as theoretical physicist [1] and on the management of the IAEA Stopping database[2,3].
