ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS OF FAST SCATTERED PARTICLES RESULTING FROM COLLISIONS OF 1- TO 60-keV NOBLE GASES WITH METAL SURFACES,

Abstract

The scattering of fast particles resulting from the bombardment of surfaces of polycrystalline copper and single-crystal silver by high-energy ions and atoms of helium, argon, and xenon is under investigation. The surface is bombarded with mass analyzed ions having energies of from 1 to 60 keV, and the fast scattered particles are detected as a function of angle. Resonance charge transfer of the primary ion beam is used to obtain the neutral beam. No significant difference is observed between angular distribution of scattering resulting from surface bombardment by ions and neutral atoms. (Author)
