Abstract
The kinetics of the A+A to 0 reaction on a correlated heterogeneous one-dimensional chain is studied. As a novel result it is found that the temporal behaviour of the density of A particles depends on the energetic topography of the surface when A particles are initially located preferentially on the more energetic sites, as happens in the case of thermodynamical equilibrium for the absorbate.Keywords
