To expand a little on the previous answer: SAMPA is seen fairly often, with occasional variants that confuse other people, and shading into X-SAMPA according to need; Kirshenbaum (no c) used to be popular, but isn't much used anymore. The possible alternative to (X-)SAMPA as a list standard seems to be to choose one of various new schemes proposed by people on the list, each of them best liked by the inventor.
