Plots of Neutral fraction for Na⁺ scattering on Ag (001) versus perpendicular exit velocity. The incident angle with respect to the surface plane is 35° and the exit angle is 35°. Experiment: (◼).^[2] Theory: the red dotted line represents the calculated results from Ref. [2]; the black solid and blue dashed lines refer to calculated results by using the modified BN model with and without the parallel velocity effect, respectively.
