    "abstract": "We study the optical excitation spectrum of an atom in the vicinity of a\ndielectric surface. We calculate the rates of the total scattering and the\nscattering into the evanescent modes. With a proper assessment of the\nlimitations, we demonstrate the portability of the flat-surface results to an\nexperimental situation with a nanofiber. The effect of the surface-induced\npotential on the excitation spectrum for free-to-bound transitions is shown to\nbe weak. On the contrary, the effect for bound-to-bound transitions is\nsignificant leading to a large excitation linewidth, a substantial negative\nshift of the peak position, and a strong long tail on the negative side and a\nsmall short tail on the positive side of the field--atom frequency detuning.",
