Abstract

Vapor flows from a single channel (tube) and from a set of tubes are simulated in the free molecular motion approximation. The integrated characteristics (the fractions of transmitted, sticking, and reflected particles) and the angular distributions of the flux and flux density of the vapor are obtained. Calculations of the flux of atoms scattered as a result of single collisions in an atomic beam are performed.
