The chapter starts with an overview of the history of the theory of surface phonons. Next the history of helium atom and electron inelastic scattering experiments are briefly reviewed. Present day helium atom scattering experiments are described next and some important related concepts are introduced. The chapter closes with a short history of the classical and quantum theory of inelastic surface scattering.

Abstract
The chapter starts with an overview of the history of the theory of surface phonons. Next the history of helium atom and electron inelastic scattering experiments are briefly reviewed. Present day helium atom scattering experiments are described next and some important related concepts are introduced. The chapter closes with a short history of the classical and quantum theory of inelastic surface scattering.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
