摘要
In a previous work (J. Vac. Sci. Technol. A 21 (2003) 1452), we calculated the transmission probabilities for cylindrical and conical ducts, solving numerically the Clausing integral equation and integrating the resulting Clausing function. It is also important to obtain the Clausing function itself, because it is proportional to the distribution of molecular collisions with the walls of the system, as we show in this contribution. Besides, the density profile of the gas inside the duct can be calculated using the Clausing function, as shown by Davies and Lucas (J. Phys. D: Appl. Phys. 16 (1983) 1). We have calculated the Clausing functions for different cylindrical and conical ducts using a Monte Carlo simulation method and we have compared these results to the numerical ones, finding a very good agreement, within statistical uncertainties.
