Abstract
The kinetics of the associative desorption of A(2) in the presence of coads orbed promoter species B is studied under conditions of nonequilibrium by t he analysis of thermal desorption spectra obtained by Monte Carlo simulatio n. A rich variety of behaviors is found and discussed with regard to the in terplay between the concentrations of promoter species, the surface mobilit y of A and B, and the interparticle interactions.
