Diffraction of H from LiF(001): From slow normal incidence to fast grazing incidence

Describing diffraction of atomic and molecular projectiles at fast grazing incidence presents a real challenge for quantum theoretical simulations due to the high incidence energy (100 eV–1 keV) used in experiments. This is one of the main reasons why most theoretical simulations performed to date a...
