  ABSTRACT: In this paper, we are going to study the surface structure and existing symmetry by simulation of a quasicrystal Al-Pd- Mn. Quasicrystals have unique properties in their own structure. In the surface structure generally we should pay attention to two subjects. Firstly, what kind of atoms have situated on the surface and secondly the form of collecting atoms by each other sides. Usually, there are different ways for answer to these questions. In this study, Low Energy Ion Scattering (LEIS) technique has been applied. We select a representative cell by using gained information from Low Energy Electron Diffraction (LEED) technique, and give the information to the SABRE computer program. This computer program has been run for azimuthally angles 0 - 180 degrees in the intervals of 9 degree and its output has been analyzed for gaining azimuthally scan. The azimuthally scan shows the existing of a symmetry 72 degree on the surface of this quasicrystal.
