β¦ Synopsis
A quasiclassical trajectory study of Nz scattering from a rigid corrugated crystal surface was carried out. Rainbow maxima were seen in the m, distribution. The maximum value of product j at which m, rainbows occur is found to increase linearly with the corrugation and decrease linearly with the hardness of the interaction potential.

High resolution mcz+surements of the differential cross sections of Na atoms sattered from symmetrical top molecules exhibit a double rainbow structure which is attributed to the anbotropy of the potential.

Rotational rainbow scattering has been observed for NO from Pt ( 111) at translational energies considerably smaller than the NO-Pt well depth ( 1 eV). Rotational distributions at superspecular angles show a clear rotational rainbow but scattering towards the surface normal is well described by a Bo
For scattering of fast atoms from metal surfaces under axial channeling conditions we observe pronounced peaks in the angular distributions of scattered projectiles which can be interpreted in terms of rainbow scattering. These structures are closely related to the interaction potentials which can b
