H. Winter et al., ENERGY-LOSS OF FAST PROTONS IN GRAZING SCATTERING FROM AN AL(111)-SURFACE, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section B, Beam interactions with materials and atoms, 125(1-4), 1997, pp. 124-127
Protons with energies ranging from 5 keV to 710 keV are scattered from
an Al(111)-surface under a grazing angle of incidence. The scattered
beams are analyzed with high angular and energy resolution with respec
t to the energy loss of the projectiles. We observe a linear increase
of the energy loss with velocity up to upsilon approximate to 1.5 a.u.
(about 50 keV) and a subsequent constant loss of about 3 keV for high
er velocities (energies). The data show a very weak dependence on angl
es relevant for the scattering event.
