Abstract

By making use of effects of the image charge on projectile trajectories in scattering of a fast beam of metastable He-atoms with keV energies from an Al (111) surface under a glancing angle of incidence, we have developed a new method to analyze fast atomic beams with respect to relative populations of excited metastable states. Based on our experimental studies we propose the construction of a corresponding detector.
