Abstract: A method for calculating multiple scattering of atomic particles passing through thin films is proposed. The angular distribution of protons passing through a thin gold film of different thicknesses is calculated. The use of the atom-solid potential to calculate the differential scattering cross section allows good agreement with experiment to be achieved.

Keywords: multiple scattering, thin films, angular distribution, collision of atoms with a solid.
