Summary:A simulation of the excitation process in Ne collisions with polycrystalline Mg and Al surfaces is reported. The treatement of the excitation is considered in the two coupled state Landau-Zener model. The elastic and inelastic interaction potentials are deduced from gas-phase data. The simulation is undertaken with the Marlowe code to which new subroutines are added to take into account the excitation process. The results show that the main trends of experimental results related to elastic and inelastic processes are reproduced and that excitation depends on the glancing angle and the incident energy.
