Electron loss and electron emission for grazing impact of noble gas atoms with energies in the keV domain are investigated via time-of-flight spectra recorded in coincidence with the number of emitted electrons. The data is analyzed in terms of computer simulations concerning the interaction of the fast atoms with the electron gas in the selvedge of the Al(1 1 1) surface. The interaction is approximated by binary collisions of the fast atoms with Fermi electrons of the conduction band and differential cross sections obtained for electron scattering from free atoms. For an effective number of collisions of about 50 the energy loss spectra are fairly well reproduced by our calculations. We show that for our conditions the shift of the energy spectra for the emission of an additional electron from the surface is close to the work function of the target.
