TLDR
In this paper, the adsorption of O2 on Ni(110) at 500 K has been studied using He diffraction, and it was shown that the Ni atoms are aligned in rows parallel to the [001] direction, and that the oxygen atoms are adsorbed at long bridge sites on the surface at a normal distance of ~ 0.3 A above the Ni atom.

Oxygen chemisorption on metal surfaces: General trends for Cu, Ni and Ag

TL;DR: A review of the present understanding of the chemisorption of oxygen on metal surfaces such as Cu, Ni, and Ag is given in this paper, with special emphasis on how recent scanning tunneling microscopy results for the dynamics of oxygen-induced reconstructions in many cases give new insight also into the static surface structures.

Adsorption and reaction of CO2 and CO2/O CO-adsorption on Ni(110): Angle resolved photoemission (ARUPS) and electron energy loss (HREELS) studies

TL;DR: In this paper, an anionic bent CO 2 moiety was found to be stable up to 230 K. The CO molecule is oriented with its axis perpendicular to the surface and the relative binding energies of the valence ion states as determined by ARUPS are consistent with those in the gas as well as in the condensed phase, and indicate that the electronic structure of the adsorbed molecule is only slightly distorted upon adsorption at this temperature.

Rainbow scattering from solid surfaces

TL;DR: Rainbow scattering from solid surfaces is discussed for beams of particles with energies from thermal to more than 1 MeV in this paper, and it is demonstrated to be a singularity in the classical scattering cross section.

Interaction of oxygen with Ni(110) studied by scanning tunneling microscopy

TL;DR: In this paper, the dynamics of the oxygen-induced reconstruction of the Ni(110) surface has been studied in real time and space by recording atom-resolved images of the clean and O-covered Ni (110) surfaces.

The physical interaction potential of gas atoms with single-crystal surfaces, determined from gas-surface diffraction experiments

TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive survey and data collection of experimental results achieved from diffracting beams of light gases from single-crystal surfaces (alkali halides, oxides, and graphite) is given, and it is shown that gas-surface diffraction is a valuable tool to get detailed information on the physical gas surface potential.

A photoemission study of the interaction of Ni(100), (110) and (111) surfaces with oxygen

TL;DR: In this paper, photoelectron spectroscopic studies of Ni(111), Ni(100) and Ni(110) surfaces were conducted to investigate the oxidation process of NiO.

Dependence of the He-Scattering Potential at Surfaces on the Surface-Electron-Density Profile

TL;DR: In this article, the repulsive part of the He-surface interaction is given by an almost linear, surface-independent function of the surface electron density at the He site, which gives a very simple connection between the measured low-energy He-beam scattering potentials and the substrate electron densities.

Quantum theory of atom-surface scattering: diffraction and rainbow

TL;DR: In this paper, a quantum theory of elastic scattering of atoms from crystal surfaces is presented, based on a hard corrugated surface model, and it is shown in detail how the rainbow effect arises and determines the diffraction probabilities, such a rainbow effect being the quantum analogon of McClure's classical rainbow.
