Abstract
In the frame of the self-energy formalism, the interaction of STEM ele ctrons with a cylindrical surface is studied. The surface modes of cyl indrical interfaces so obtained are proven to fulfil certain sum rules . A general expression for the energy loss probability valid for any b eam direction nonparallel to the cylinder axis is presented. In all th e cases the so-called begrenzung effect is found.
