Abstract
A new simulation program 'MATCH' has been developed for a detailed ana lysis of low-energy ion scattering (LEIS) and recoiling data. Instead of performing the full calculation of the three-dimensional trajectori es through the sample from the ion source towards the detector, incomi ng trajectories as well as reversed-time outgoing trajectories are cal culated, separately. Finally, these trajectories are matched to obtain the yield. The program has been tested for spectra and azimuthal scan s of scattering and recoiling events of various sample species in diff erent scattering geometries. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
