Approach to coherent interference fringes in helium-surface scattering

The conventional notion of elastic, coherent atom-surface scattering originates from the scattering particles acting as a quantum-mechanical matter wave, which coherently interfere to produce distinct Bragg peaks which persist at finite temperature. If we introduce inelastic scattering to this scena...
