Monte carlo simulation of hyperthermal physical vapor deposition
TL;DR: Yang et al. as discussed by the authors used a two-dimensional kinetic Monte Carlo model to analyze the thermally driven multipath diffusional processes active during vapor deposition and found the existence of a minimum surface roughness at an incident angle which increased with impact atom kinetic energy.

The theory of atomic collisions
TL;DR: The perturbation theory has been applied to many-body problems and applications, such as electron collisions with atoms, collisions between atomic systems, nuclear collisions, and certain aspects of two-body systems under relativistic collisions.
