Abstract
A Mont Carlo simulation of the NO-CO catalytic reaction on a square la ttice is presented. It is shown that a steady reactive state for this reaction exists when the adsorbed N atom is allowed to diffuse on the surface. The window width of this reactive state diminishes as the dif fusion rate decreases. The power law behavior of the window width agai nst the diffusion rate has a critical exponent 1/3.
