MEIS investigations of surface structure
TL;DR: The early work of the FOM-AMOLF group in Amsterdam clearly demonstrated the potential of medium energy ion scattering (MEIS), typically using 100 keV H+ incident ions, to investigate the structure of surfaces, but most current applications of the method are focussed on near-surface compositional studies of non-crystalline films as mentioned in this paper.

Epitaxial growth of ultrathin Ag films on Al(111)
Andreas Losch,Horst Niehus +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the structure and growth mode of Ag evaporated on Al(111) at room temperature were investigated by ion scattering, and strong indications for island formation (three-dimensional growth mode) have been found.

Time-of-flight analyzer system to detect reflected particles from a solid surface following low-energy particle injectiona)
Hitoshi Yamaoka,Nozomi Tanaka,Katsuyoshi Tsumori,Masaki Nishiura,Takahiro Kenmotsu,T. Hirouchi,Masashi Kisaki,K. Shinto,Mamiko Sasao,Y. Matsumoto,Motoi Wada +10 more
TL;DR: A time-of-flight analyzer is developed to measure energy distributions of reflected particles from solid surfaces bombarded by low-energy (1-2 keV) ions and compares these characteristics of neutral particle reflections with those of reflected ions.

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.
