GIFAD for He/KCl(001). Structure in the pattern for 〈110〉 incidence as a measure of the projectile-cation interaction

In this article we address grazing incidence fast atom diffraction (GIFAD) for the He/KCl(001) system, for which a systematic experimental study was recently reported [E. Meyer, Ph.D dissertation, Humboldt-Universität, Berlin, Germany, 2015]. Our theoretical model is built from a projectile-surface...
