All material bodies are surrounded by a fluctuating electromagnetic field because of the
thermal and quantum fluctuations of the current density inside them. Close to the surface of …

Theoretical physics deals with physical models. The main requirements for a good physical
model are simplicity and universality. Universal models which can be applied to describe a …

A generalization of classical adiabatic molecular dynamics, which we term molecular
dynamics with electronic frictions, is described for nuclear motion on a continuum of …

Many important processes in science involve the escape of a particle over a barrier. In this
review, we report, extend, and interpret various theories of noise-activated escape. We …

We quantitatively evaluate the contribution of electron-hole pair excitations to the reactive
dynamics of H 2 on Cu (110) and N 2 on W (110), including the six dimensionality of the …

Recent experiments have shown convincing evidence for nonadiabatic energy transfer from
adsorbate degrees of freedom to surface electrons during the interaction of molecules with …

Previous work on the interaction of hydrogen with Pt (111) was extended to a stepped Pt (S)-
9 (111)×(111) surface in order to elucidate the role of structural imperfections as “active …

The theory of electronically non-adiabatic processes in atom scattering on surfaces of solids,
in particular metals, is reviewed. It is assumed that resonant tunnelling of electrons between …

When neutral molecules with low levels of vibrational excitation collide at metal surfaces,
vibrational coupling to electron-hole pairs (EHPs) is not thought to be strong unless …
