Abstract
► We propose a novel process for ion neutralization near metal surfaces. ► Emission of bulk plasmons induced by ions which do not penetrate the metal. ► The interaction Hamiltonian is obtained by means of a Bohm-Pines Fock-Tani approach. ► The corresponding collective transition rates are calculated and compared to those of other related processes.
