A quantitative evaluation of linear energy losses of heavy particles in dense plasmas is achieved on the basis of the rational approximation for the plasma dielectric function generated by the method of moments. A comparison with the simulation data is carried out. The asymptotic behavior of the plasma stopping power is studied in detail.
