Microcanonical Transition State Theory for Activated Gas−Surface Reaction Dynamics: Application to H2/Cu(111) with Rotation as a Spectator

First principles rates for surface chemistry employing exact transition state theory: application to recombinative desorption of hydrogen from Cu(111)

We present first principles calculations of the reactive flux for thermal recombinative desorption of hydrogen from Cu(111).

Quantum and classical dynamics of reactive scattering of H2 from metal surfaces

State-of-the-art theoretical models allow nowadays an accurate description of H₂/metal surface systems and phenomena relative to heterogeneous catalysis. Here we review the most relevant ones investigated during the last 10 years.
