Temperature Dependence in Rainbow Scattering of Hyperthermal Ar Atoms from LiF(001)

Abstract

Recent experiments have reported measurements of rainbow scattering features in the angular distributions of hyperthermal Ar colliding with LiF(001) [Kondo et al., J. Chem. Phys. 122, 244713 (2005)]. A semiclassical theory of atom-surface collisions recently developed by the authors that includes multiphonon energy transfers is used to explain the temperature dependence of the measured scattered angular distribution spectra.
