Abstract
We construct the effective Hartree potential for H2 on Cu(111) as introduced in our earlier work [Dutta et al., J. Chem. Phys. 154, 104103 (2021), and Dutta et al., J. Chem. Phys. 157, 194112 (2022)] starting from the same gas-metal interaction potential obtained for 0 K. Unlike in that work, we now explicitly account for surface expansion at 925 K and investigate different models to describe the surface vibrational modes: (i) a cluster model yielding harmonic normal modes at 0 K and (ii) slab models resulting in phonons at 0 and 925 K according to the quasi-harmonic approximation-all consistently calculated at the density functional theory level with the same exchange-correlation potential. While performing dynamical calculations for the H2(v = 0, j = 0)-Cu(111) system employing Hartree potential constructed with 925 K phonons and surface temperature, (i) the calculated chemisorption probabilities are the highest compared to the other approaches over the energy domain and (ii) the threshold for the reaction probability is the lowest, in close agreement with the experiment. Although the survival probabilities (v' = 0) depict the expected trend (lower in magnitude), the excitation probabilities (v' = 1) display a higher magnitude since the 925 K phonons and surface temperature are more effective for the excitation process compared to the phonons/normal modes obtained from the other approaches investigated to describe the surface.

Abstract
The 6D time-dependent wave packet calculations were performed to explore H2 dissociation on Ag, Au, and two AgAu alloy surfaces, using four newly fitted potential energy surfaces based on the neural network fitting to density functional theory energy points. The ligand effect resulting from the Ag-Au interaction causes a reduction in the barrier height for H2+Ag/Au(111) compared to H2+Ag(111). However, the scenario is reversed for H2+Au/Ag(111) and H2+Au(111). The 6D dissociation probabilities of H2 on Ag/Au(111) surfaces are significantly higher than those on the pure Ag(111) surface, but the corresponding results for H2 on Au/Ag(111) surfaces are substantially lower than those on the pure Au(111) surface. The reactivity of H2 on Au(111) is larger than that on Ag(111), despite Ag(111) having a slightly lower static barrier height. This can be attributed to the exceptionally small dissociation probabilities at the hcp and fcc regions, which are at least 100 times smaller compared to those at the bridge or top site for H2+Ag(111). Due to the late barrier being more pronounced, the vibrational excitation of H2 on Ag(111) is more effective in promoting the reaction than on Au(111). Moreover, a high degree of alignment dependence is detected for the four reactions, where the H2 dissociation has the highest probability at the helicopter alignment, as opposed to the cartwheel alignment.

Abstract
State-of-the-art 6D quantum dynamics simulations for the dissociative chemisorption of H2 on a thermally distorted Cu(111) surface, using the static corrugation model, were analyzed to produce several (experimentally available) observables. The expected error, especially important for lower reaction probabilities, was quantified using wavepackets on several different grids as well as two different analysis approaches to obtain more accurate results in the region where a slow reaction channel was experimentally shown to be dominant. The lowest reaction barrier sites for different thermally distorted surface slabs are shown to not just be energetically, but also geometrically, different between surface configurations, which can be used to explain several dynamical effects found when including surface temperature effects. Direct comparison of simulated time-of-flight spectra to those obtained from state-of-the-art desorption experiments showed much improved agreement compared to the perfect lattice BOSS approach. Agreement with experimental rotational and vibrational efficacies also somewhat improved when thermally excited surfaces were included in the theoretical model. Finally, we present clear quantum effects in the rotational quadrupole alignment parameters found for the lower rotationally excited states, which underlines the importance of careful quantum dynamical analyses of this system.

Abstract
Accurately describing surface temperature effects for the dissociative scattering of H2 on a metal surface on a quantum dynamical level is currently one of the open challenges for theoretical surface scientists. We present the first quantum dynamical (QD) simulations of hydrogen dissociating on a Cu(111) surface which accurately describe all relevant surface temperature effects, using the static corrugation model (SCM). The reaction probabilities we obtain show very good agreement with those found using quasi-classical dynamics (QCD), both for individual surface slabs and for an averaged, thus Monte-Carlo sampled, set of thermally distorted surface configurations. Rovibrationally elastic scattering probabilities show a much clearer difference between the QCD and QD results, which appears to be traceable back towards thermally distorted surface configurations with very low dissociation probabilities and underlines the importance of investigating more observables than just dissociation. By reducing the number of distorted surface atoms included in the dynamical model, we also show that only including one, or even three, surface atoms is generally not enough to accurately describe the effects of surface temperature on dissociation and elastic scattering. These results are a major step forward in accurately describing hydrogen scattering from a thermally excited Cu(111) surface, and open up a pathway to better describe reaction and scattering from other relevant crystal facets, such as stepped surfaces, at moderately elevated surface temperatures where quantum effects are expected to play a more important role in the dissociation of H2 on Cu.

Abstract
The probability for dissociation of molecules on metal surfaces, which often controls the rate of industrially important catalytic processes, can depend strongly on how energy is partitioned in the incident molecule. There are many example systems where the addition of vibrational energy promotes reaction more effectively than the addition of translational energy, but for rotational pre-excitation similar examples have not yet been discovered. Here, we make an experimentally testable theoretical prediction that adding energy to the rotation of HCl can promote its dissociation on Au(111) 20 times more effectively than increasing its translational energy. In the underlying mechanism, the molecule's initial rotational motion allows it to pass through a critical region of the reaction path, where this path shows a strong and nonmonotonic dependence on the molecular orientation.

Abstract
Accurately modeling heterogeneous catalysis requires accurate descriptions of rate-controlling elementary reactions of molecules on metal surfaces, but standard density functionals (DFs) are not accurate enough for this. The problem can be solved with the specific reaction parameter approach to density functional theory (SRP-DFT), but the transferability of SRP DFs among chemically related systems is limited. We combine the MS-PBEl, MS-B86bl, and MS-RPBEl semilocal made simple (MS) meta-generalized gradient approximation (GGA) (mGGA) DFs with rVV10 nonlocal correlation, and we evaluate their performance for the hydrogen (H2) + Cu(111), deuterium (D2) + Ag(111), H2 + Au(111), and D2 + Pt(111) gas-surface systems. The three MS mGGA DFs that have been combined with rVV10 nonlocal correlation were not fitted to reproduce particular experiments, nor has the b parameter present in rVV10 been reoptimized. Of the three DFs obtained the MS-PBEl-rVV10 DF yields an excellent description of van der Waals well geometries. The three original MS mGGA DFs gave a highly accurate description of the metals, which was comparable in quality to that obtained with the PBEsol DF. Here, we find that combining the three original MS mGGA DFs with rVV10 nonlocal correlation comes at the cost of a slightly less accurate description of the metal. However, the description of the metal obtained in this way is still better than the descriptions obtained with SRP DFs specifically optimized for individual systems. Using the Born-Oppenheimer static surface (BOSS) model, simulations of molecular beam dissociative chemisorption experiments yield chemical accuracy for the D2 + Ag(111) and D2 + Pt(111) systems. A comparison between calculated and measured E 1/2(ν, J) parameters describing associative desorption suggests chemical accuracy for the associative desorption of H2 from Au(111) as well. Our results suggest that ascending Jacob's ladder to the mGGA rung yields increasingly more accurate results for gas-surface reactions of H2 (D2) interacting with late transition metals.

Abstract
We review the state-of-the-art in the theory of dissociative chemisorption (DC) of small gas phase molecules on metal surfaces, which is important to modeling heterogeneous catalysis for practical reasons, and for achieving an understanding of the wealth of experimental information that exists for this topic, for fundamental reasons. We first give a quick overview of the experimental state of the field. Turning to the theory, we address the challenge that barrier heights (Eb, which are not observables) for DC on metals cannot yet be calculated with chemical accuracy, although embedded correlated wave function theory and diffusion Monte-Carlo are moving in this direction. For benchmarking, at present chemically accurate Eb can only be derived from dynamics calculations based on a semi-empirically derived density functional (DF), by computing a sticking curve and demonstrating that it is shifted from the curve measured in a supersonic beam experiment by no more than 1 kcal mol-1. The approach capable of delivering this accuracy is called the specific reaction parameter (SRP) approach to density functional theory (DFT). SRP-DFT relies on DFT and on dynamics calculations, which are most efficiently performed if a potential energy surface (PES) is available. We therefore present a brief review of the DFs that now exist, also considering their performance on databases for Eb for gas phase reactions and DC on metals, and for adsorption to metals. We also consider expressions for SRP-DFs and briefly discuss other electronic structure methods that have addressed the interaction of molecules with metal surfaces. An overview is presented of dynamical models, which make a distinction as to whether or not, and which dissipative channels are modeled, the dissipative channels being surface phonons and electronically non-adiabatic channels such as electron-hole pair excitation. We also discuss the dynamical methods that have been used, such as the quasi-classical trajectory method and quantum dynamical methods like the time-dependent wave packet method and the reaction path Hamiltonian method. Limits on the accuracy of these methods are discussed for DC of diatomic and polyatomic molecules on metal surfaces, paying particular attention to reduced dimensionality approximations that still have to be invoked in wave packet calculations on polyatomic molecules like CH4. We also address the accuracy of fitting methods, such as recent machine learning methods (like neural network methods) and the corrugation reducing procedure. In discussing the calculation of observables we emphasize the importance of modeling the properties of the supersonic beams in simulating the sticking probability curves measured in the associated experiments. We show that chemically accurate barrier heights have now been extracted for DC in 11 molecule-metal surface systems, some of which form the most accurate core of the only existing database of Eb for DC reactions on metal surfaces (SBH10). The SRP-DFs (or candidate SRP-DFs) that have been derived show transferability in many cases, i.e., they have been shown also to yield chemically accurate Eb for chemically related systems. This can in principle be exploited in simulating rates of catalyzed reactions on nano-particles containing facets and edges, as SRP-DFs may be transferable among systems in which a molecule dissociates on low index and stepped surfaces of the same metal. In many instances SRP-DFs have allowed important conclusions regarding the mechanisms underlying observed experimental trends. An important recent observation is that SRP-DFT based on semi-local exchange DFs has so far only been successful for systems for which the difference of the metal work function and the molecule's electron affinity exceeds 7 eV. A main challenge to SRP-DFT is to extend its applicability to the other systems, which involve a range of important DC reactions of e.g. O2, H2O, NH3, CO2, and CH3OH. Recent calculations employing a PES based on a screened hybrid exchange functional suggest that the road to success may be based on using exchange functionals of this category.

Abstract
The dissociative adsorption of molecular oxygen on metal surfaces has long been controversial, mostly due to the spin-triplet nature of its ground state, to possible non-adiabatic effects, such as an abrupt charge transfer from the metal to the molecule, or even to the role played by the surface electronic state. Here, we have studied the dissociative adsorption of O2 on CuML/Ru(0001) at normal and off-normal incidence, from thermal to super-thermal energies, using quasi-classical dynamics, in the framework of the generalized Langevin oscillator model, and density functional theory based on a multidimensional potential energy surface. Our simulations reveal a rather intriguing behavior of dissociative adsorption probabilities, which exhibit normal energy scaling at incidence energies below the reaction barriers and total energy scaling above, irrespective of the reaction channel, either direct dissociation, trapping dissociation, or molecular adsorption. We directly compare our results with existing scanning tunneling spectroscopy and microscopy measurements. From this comparison, we infer that the observed experimental behavior at thermal energies may be due to ligand and strain effects, as already found for super-thermal incidence energies.

Abstract
The effect of surface atom vibrations on H2 scattering from a Cu(111) surface at different temperatures is being investigated for hydrogen molecules in their rovibrational ground state (v = 0, j = 0). We assume weakly correlated interactions between molecular degrees of freedom and surface modes through a Hartree product type wavefunction. While constructing the six-dimensional effective Hamiltonian, we employ (a) a chemically accurate potential energy surface according to the static corrugation model [M. Wijzenbroek and M. F. Somers, J. Chem. Phys. 137, 054703 (2012)]; (b) normal mode frequencies and displacement vectors calculated with different surface atom interaction potentials within a cluster approximation; and (c) initial state distributions for the vibrational modes according to Bose-Einstein probability factors. We carry out 6D quantum dynamics with the so-constructed effective Hamiltonian and analyze sticking and state-to-state scattering probabilities. The surface atom vibrations affect the chemisorption dynamics. The results show physically meaningful trends for both reaction and scattering probabilities compared to experimental and other theoretical results.

Abstract
The D2 on Cu(111) system has for many years been one of the major benchmark systems for surface scientists. Generating surface configurations using the embedded atom method (EAM), we investigate the quality of the chemically accurate static corrugation model (SCM) for including surface temperature effects, with a focus on the random displacement approach to its distorted surface generation. With this EAM potential, we also treat the Cu(111) surface of our system fully dynamically and shine a further light on not only the quality of the SCM sudden approach but also the limited effect of energy exchange with the surface. Reaction and (in)elastic scattering probability curves, as well as simulated time-of-flight spectra, show good agreement with both earlier works and experimental results, with surface reactions showing a preference for surface atoms displaced away from the incoming molecule. The good agreement with the non-static surface model also further establishes the limited effect of energy exchange on not only the reaction but also on the elastic and inelastic scattering probabilities, even though some molecular translational energy is deposited into the surface.

Abstract
Specific reaction parameter density functionals (SRP-DFs) that can describe dissociative chemisorption molecular beam experiments of hydrogen (H2) on cold transition metal surfaces with chemical accuracy have so far been shown to be only transferable among different facets of the same metal, but not among different metals. We design new SRP-DFs that include non-local vdW-DF2 correlation for the H2 + Cu(111) system, and evaluate their transferability to the highly activated H2 + Ag(111) and H2 + Au(111) systems and the non-activated H2 + Pt(111) system. We design our functionals for the H2 + Cu(111) system since it is the best studied system both theoretically and experimentally. Here we demonstrate that a SRP-DF fitted to reproduce molecular beam sticking experiments for H2 + Cu(111) with chemical accuracy can also describe such experiments for H2 + Pt(111) with chemical accuracy, and vice versa. Chemically accurate functionals have been obtained that perform very well with respect to reported van der Waals well geometries, and which improve the description of the metal over current generalized gradient approximation (GGA) based SRP-DFs. From a systematic comparison of our new SRP-DFs that include non-local correlation to previously developed SRP-DFs, for both activated and non-activated systems, we identify non-local correlation as a key ingredient in the construction of transferable SRP-DFs for H2 interacting with transition metals. Our results are in excellent agreement with experiment when accurately measured observables are available. It is however clear from our analysis that, except for the H2 + Cu(111) system, there is a need for more, more varied, and more accurately described experiments in order to further improve the design of SRP-DFs. Additionally, we confirm that, when including non-local correlation, the sticking of H2 on Cu(111) is still well described quasi-classically.

Abstract
Reactions on stepped surfaces are relevant to heterogeneous catalysis, in which a reaction often takes place at the edges of nanoparticles where the edges resemble steps on single-crystal stepped surfaces. Previous results on H2 + Cu(211) showed that, in this system, steps do not enhance the reactivity and raised the question of whether this effect could be, in any way, related to the neglect of quantum dynamical effects in the theory. To investigate this, we present full quantum dynamical molecular beam simulations of sticking of H2 on Cu(211), in which all important rovibrational states populated in a molecular beam experiment are taken into account. We find that the reaction of H2 with Cu(211) is very well described with quasi-classical dynamics when simulating molecular beam sticking experiments, in which averaging takes place over a large number of rovibrational states and over translational energy distributions. Our results show that the stepped Cu(211) surface is distinct from its component Cu(111) terraces and Cu(100) steps and cannot be described as a combination of its component parts with respect to the reaction dynamics when considering the orientational dependence. Specifically, we present evidence that, at translational energies close to the reaction threshold, vibrationally excited molecules show a negative rotational quadrupole alignment parameter on Cu(211), which is not found on Cu(111) and Cu(100). The effect arises because these molecules react with a site-specific reaction mechanism at the step, that is, inelastic rotational enhancement, which is only effective for molecules with a small absolute value of the magnetic rotation quantum number. From a comparison to recent associative desorption experiments as well as Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics calculations, it follows that the effects of surface atom motion and electron-hole pair excitation on the reactivity fall within chemical accuracy, that is, modeling these effect shifts extracted reaction probability curves by less than 1 kcal/mol translational energy. We found no evidence in our fully state-resolved calculations for the "slow" reaction channel that was recently reported for associative desorption of H2 from Cu(111) and Cu(211), but our results for the fast channel are in good agreement with the experiments on H2 + Cu(211).

Abstract
Specific reaction parameter density functionals (SRP-DFs), which can describe dissociative chemisorption reactions on metals to within chemical accuracy, have so far been based on exchange functionals within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and on GGA correlation functionals or van der Waals correlation functionals. These functionals are capable of describing the molecule-metal surface interaction accurately, but they suffer from the general GGA problem that this can be done only at the cost of a rather poor description of the metal. Here, we show that it is possible also to construct SRP-DFs for H2 dissociation on Cu(111) based on meta-GGA functionals, introducing three new functionals based on the "made-simple" (MS) concept. The exchange parts of the three functionals (MS-PBEl, MS-B86bl, and MS-RPBEl) are based on the expressions for the PBE, B86b, and RPBE exchange functionals. Quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) calculations performed with potential energy surfaces (PESs) obtained with the three MS functionals reproduce molecular beam experiments on H2, D2 + Cu(111) with chemical accuracy. Therefore, these three non-empirical functionals themselves are also capable of describing H2 dissociation on Cu(111) with chemical accuracy. Similarly, QCT calculations performed on the MS-PBEl and MS-B86bl PESs reproduced molecular beam and associative desorption experiments on D2, H2 + Ag(111) more accurately than was possible with the SRP48 density functional for H2 + Cu(111). Also, the three new MS functionals describe the Cu, Ag, Au, and Pt metals more accurately than the all-purpose Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) functional. The only disadvantage we noted of the new MS functionals is that, as found for the example of H2 + Cu(111), the reaction barrier height obtained by taking weighted averages of the MS-PBEl and MS-RPBEl functionals is tunable over a smaller range (9 kJ/mol) than possible with the standard GGA PBE and RPBE functionals (33 kJ/mol). As a result of this restricted tunability, it is not possible to construct an SRP-DF for H2 + Ag(111) on the basis of the three examined MS meta-GGA functionals.

Abstract
Recent advances in theoretical characterization of reaction dynamics on metal surfaces are reviewed. It is shown that the widely available density functional theory of metals and their interactions with molecules have enabled first principles theoretical models for treating surface reaction dynamics. The new theoretical tools include methods to construct high-dimensional adiabatic potential energy surfaces, to characterize nonadiabatic processes within the electronic friction models, and to describe dynamics both quantum mechanically and classically. Three prototypical surface reactions, namely, dissociative chemisorption, Eley-Rideal reactions, and recombinative desorption, are surveyed with a focus on some representative examples. While principles governing gas phase reaction dynamics may still be applicable, the presence of the surface introduces a higher level of complexity due to strong interaction between the molecular species and metal substrate. Furthermore, most of these reactive processes are impacted by energy exchange with surface phonons and/or electron-hole pair excitations. These theoretical studies help to interpret and rationalize experimental observations and, in some cases, guide experimental explorations. Knowledge acquired in these fundamental studies is expected to impact many practical problems in a wide range of interfacial processes.

Abstract
The HCl + Au(111) system has recently become a benchmark for highly activated dissociative chemisorption, which presumably is strongly affected by electron-hole pair excitation. Previous dynamics calculations, which were based on density functional theory at the generalized gradient approximation level (GGA-DFT) for the molecule-surface interaction, have all overestimated measured reaction probabilities by at least an order of magnitude. Here, we perform ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) and AIMD with electronic friction (AIMDEF) calculations employing a density functional that includes the attractive van der Waals interaction. Our calculations model the simultaneous and possibly synergistic effects of surface temperature, surface atom motion, electron-hole pair excitation, the molecular beam conditions of the experiments, and the van der Waals interaction on the reactivity. We find that reaction probabilities computed with AIMDEF and the SRP32-vdW functional still overestimate the measured reaction probabilities, by a factor 18 for the highest incidence energy at which measurements were performed (≈2.5 eV). Even granting that the experiment could have underestimated the sticking probability by about a factor three, this still translates into a considerable overestimation of the reactivity by the current theory. Likewise, scaled transition probabilities for vibrational excitation from ν = 1, j = 1 to ν = 2 are overestimated by the AIMDEF theory, by factors 3-8 depending on the initial conditions modeled. Energy losses to the surface and translational energy losses are, however, in good agreement with experimental values.

Abstract
The accurate description of the dissociative chemisorption of a molecule on a metal surface requires a chemically accurate description of the molecule-surface interaction. Previously, it was shown that the specific reaction parameter approach to density functional theory (SRP-DFT) enables accurate descriptions of the reaction of dihydrogen with metal surfaces in, for instance, H2 + Pt(111), H2 + Cu(111), and H2 + Cu(100). SRP-DFT likewise allowed a chemically accurate description of dissociation of methane on Ni(111) and Pt(111), and the SRP functional for CH4 + Ni(111) was transferable to CH4 + Pt(111), where Ni and Pt belong to the same group. Here, we investigate whether the SRP density functional derived for H2 + Cu(111) also gives chemically accurate results for H2 + Ag(111), where Ag belongs to the same group as Cu. To do this, we have performed quasi-classical trajectory calculations using the six-dimensional potential energy surface of H2 + Ag(111) within the Born-Oppenheimer static surface approximation. The computed reaction probabilities are compared with both state-resolved associative desorption and molecular beam sticking experiments. Our results do not yet show transferability, as the computed sticking probabilities and initial-state selected reaction probabilities are shifted relative to experiment to higher energies by about 2-3 kcal/mol. The lack of transferability may be due to the different character of the SRP functionals for H2 + Cu and CH4 + group 10 metals, the latter containing a van der Waals correlation functional and the former not.

Abstract
We present a combined experimental-theoretical study on structural and coverage dependences of the adsorption and desorption of molecular hydrogen on atomically flat Cu(111) and highly stepped Cu(211) surfaces. For molecules with identical incident energy from supersonic molecular beams, we find a reduced dissociative sticking probability for the stepped surface compared to Cu(111). DFT calculations of activation barriers to dissociation for the clean and partially precovered surfaces, as well as quantitative analysis of TPD spectra, support that the A-type step of the (211) surface causes an upward shift in activation barriers to dissociation and lowering of the desorption barrier. The new data allow us to determine low sticking probabilities at conditions where King and Wells measurements fail to determine the reactivity. They are also fully consistent with the unexpected observation that monoatomic steps on a surface lower the reactivity toward the dissociation of a diatomic molecule.

Abstract
At present, molecular dynamics with electronic friction (MDEF) is the workhorse model to go beyond the Born-Oppenheimer approximation in modeling dynamics of molecules at metal surfaces. Concomitant friction coefficients can be calculated with either the local density friction approximation (LDFA) or orbital-dependent friction (ODF), which, unlike LDFA, accounts for anisotropy while relying on other approximations. Due to the computational cost of ODF, extensive high-dimensional MDEF trajectory calculations of experimentally measurable observables have hitherto only been performed based on LDFA. We overcome this limitation with a continuous neural-network-based representation. In our first application to the scattering of vibrationally excited H2 and D2 from Cu(111), we predict up to three times higher vibrational de-excitation probabilities with ODF than with LDFA. These results indicate that anisotropic electronic friction can be important for specific molecular observables. Future experiments can test for this "fingerprint" of different approximations underlying state-of-the-art MDEF.

Abstract
In scattering of H2 from Cu(111), vibrational excitation has so far defied an accurate theoretical description. To expose the causes of the large discrepancies with experiment, we investigate how the feature due to vibrational excitation (the "gain peak") in the simulated time-of-flight spectrum of (v = 1, j = 3) H2 scattering from Cu(111) depends on the surface temperature (Ts) and the possibility of energy exchange with surface phonons and electron-hole pairs (ehp's). Quasi-classical dynamics calculations are performed on the basis of accurate semiempirical density functionals for the interaction with H2 + Cu(111). The methods used include the quasi-classical trajectory method within the Born-Oppenheimer static surface model, the generalized Langevin oscillator (GLO) method incorporating energy transfer to surface phonons, the GLO + friction (GLO+F) method also incorporating energy exchange with ehp's, and ab initio molecular dynamics with electronic friction (AIMDEF). Of the quasi-classical methods tested, comparison with AIMDEF suggests that the GLO+F method is accurate enough to describe vibrational excitation as measured in the experiments. The GLO+F calculations also suggest that the promoting effect of raising Ts on the measured vibrational excitation is due to an electronically nonadiabatic mechanism. However, by itself, enabling energy exchange with the surface by modeling surface phonons and ehp's leads to reduced vibrational excitation, further decreasing the agreement with experiment. The simulated gain peak is quite sensitive to energy shifts in calculated vibrational excitation probabilities and to shifts in a specific experimental parameter (the chopper opening time). While the GLO+F calculations allow important qualitative conclusions, comparison to quantum dynamics results suggests that, with the quasi-classical way of describing nuclear motion and the present box quantization method for assigning the final vibrational state, the gain peak is not yet described with quantitative accuracy. Ways in which this problem might be resolved in the future are discussed.

Abstract
The dissociative chemisorption of small molecules such as methane and water on metal surfaces is a key step in many important catalyzed reactions. However, it has only very recently become possible to directly compare theory with molecular beam studies of these reactions. For most experimental conditions, such a comparison requires accurate methods for introducing the effects of lattice motion into quantum reactive scattering calculations. We examine these methods and their recent application to methane and water dissociative chemisorption. New results are presented for CO2 chemisorption and methane dissociation at step edges. The type of molecule-lattice coupling that leads to a strong variation in the dissociative sticking of methane with temperature is shown to occur for many polyatomic-metal systems. Improvements to these models are discussed. The ability to accurately compare theory with molecular beam experiments should lead to improved density functionals and consequently more accurate thermal rate constants for these important reactions.

Abstract
Being able to calculate reaction barrier heights to within chemical accuracy (errors < 1 kcal/mol) is crucial to the accurate modeling of chemical reactions. Although accurate databases exist that can help theorists with benchmarking new electronic structure theories on gas-phase chemical reactions, no such databases exist for reactions of molecules with metal surfaces. Nonetheless, most chemicals are made in heterogeneously catalyzed processes, of which many take place over metal particles. Presently, barrier heights for molecule-metal surface reactions have been determined with chemical accuracy for only two systems, that is, H2 + Cu(111) and H2 + Cu(100). This has been done with semiempirically determined density functionals, which were fitted through comparisons of dynamics results with molecular beam sticking probabilities. The prospects of extending the database with chemically accurate data for other molecule-metal reactions, either with the use of semiempirical density functional theory or with first-principles theory, are discussed.

Abstract
The effect of phonon modes and electron–hole pair (elhp) couplings at different surface temperature on D 2(v = 0, 1; j = 0)– Cu (111) collision has been explored by assuming weakly correlated interactions between molecular Degrees of Freedoms (DOFs) with surface modes and elhp excitations through a Hartree product type wavefunction, where the initial state distributions for the phonon modes and the elhp couplings are incorporated by using Bose–Einstein and Fermi–Dirac probability factors, respectively. We carry out four (4D⊗2D)- and six (6D)- dimensional quantum dynamics on such an effective Hamiltonian, and depict the calculated sticking/transition probabilities and energy transfer from molecule to the surface. The phonon modes slightly affect the sticking probability by broadening the profile, but the transition probability are substantially changed with respect to the rigid surface. On the contrary, the inclusion of elhp coupling along with phonon modes does not change the results much compared to the only phonon case.
