The Binary Collision Model

  • Chapter
Computer Simulation of Ion-Solid Interactions

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Materials Science ((SSMATERIALS,volume 10))

Abstract

The binary collision approximation is the basis of a large number of computer simulation programs. These programs treat the movement of an atom in a solid as a series of successive binary collisions. The single binary collision will be the subject of this chapter. The terms atom, particle or projectile may be used independently of the charge state of an atom. Binary collisions between atoms have been studied in the past in the field of atomic collisions in the gas phase and, for example, in the game of billiards, but there are several details that cannot be found in textbooks such as [2.1,2].
