Abstract
We show how scanning tunneling microscopy can be used to determine asp ects of transient mobility in the adsorption process, in chemical reac tions, and energy transfer processes at surfaces. For adsorption from the gas phase both the mean accommodation length and the promptness of energy loss can be elucidated using real space imaging.
