DESCRIPTION:Prof. Hua Guo Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology\nUn
 iversity of New Mexico\n!! Room change !! Chemical reactions at gas-solid 
 interfaces are of great importance in many heterogeneous processes such as
  catalysis\, corrosion\, and material fabrication. In this talk\, dynamics
  of several prototypical surface processes\, including dissociative chemis
 orption\, Eley-Rideal reactions\, and desorption\, are explored theoretica
 lly on metal surfaces. Classical trajectories either on analytical potenti
 al energy surfaces or with forces calculated on the fly are used to explor
 e reaction dynamics in the presence of surface phonons and electron-hole p
 airs. Signatures of dynamics\, such as reactant mode specificity and produ
 ct energy disposal\, are examined and compared with available experimental
  data to shed light on unique features of surface reaction dynamics.
