Resumen
In this work a theoretical study of the collision of many-electron ions with a surface is performed. The case of largeangle collisions with respect to the surface and projectiles with an open shell is treated. Two important ingredients areconsidered in the theoretical model. One is the calculation of the interaction terms by considering the orientations of theprojectile orbitals with respect to the reference frame provided by the surface. In this form the different symmetryconsiderations with respect to an isolated two-atom collision are introduced. The other one is the Coulomb repulsionbetween the electrons in the ion site, which is taken into account within a Hartree?Fock description of the timedependentevolution. In this way our model calculation is able to reproduce the experimental trends observed in thescattering of Nþ by a LiF surface.
