  • Abstract
    This paper describes a careful numerical study of the effects of low sticking coefficient for two and three dimensional structures. The model for reflection is a cosine re-emission distribution with no dependence on the distribution of incoming particles. We calculate the limiting case for several different initial topologies. We conclude that the limiting profile can not in general be replaced by an isotropic deposition term, and demonstrate the effects of low sticking coefficient on complex structures.
