Abstract
Slow ions scattered from a clean and flat LiF(001) surface under a grazing angle of incidence exhibit a high probability for forming ions in the reflected beam, whereas no negative ions are found for neutral projectiles. From detailed studies of projectile energy loss and charge transfer, we find evidence for a correlated double-electron capture process in the formation of the ions.
