Nonperturbative expressions are derived for the angular resolved energy transfer spectra in the quantum regime of multiphonon scattering of inert gas atoms from surfaces. Application to He atom scattering from a prototype heatbath Xe/Cu(111) shows good agreement with experiments. This enables a full quantum calculation of the total energy transfer $mu$ and therefrom the much debated recovery or equilibrium temperature $T_{r}$ characteristic of zero energy transfer in gas-surface collisions in the free molecular flow regime. Classical universal character of $mu$ and $T_{r}$ is refuted.

Recently developed quantum mechanical theory of inelastic He atom scattering (HAS) from solid surfaces is employed to analyze the energy transfer between projectile particles (thermal energy He-atoms) and vibrational degrees of freedom (phonons) char acteristic of a variety of experimentally studied surfaces. We have first calculated the angular resolved energy transfer which can be directly compared with the values deducible from the HAS time-of-flight spectra and a good agreement with experimental data has been found. This enabled us to calculate the total or angular integrated energy transfer, which is of paramount importance in the studies of gas-surface scattering, but is neither accessible in HAS (which yields only the angular resolved quantities), nor in the wind tunnel measurements for surfaces whose atomic composition and cleanliness must be maintained during the experiment. Here we present the results for prototype collision systems of this kind, viz. He => Cu(001), He => Xe/Cu(111) and He => Xe(111) which are representative of the very different types of surface vibrational dynamics and thereby provide an insight into some common properties of energy transfer in gas-surface scattering.

We present a comparative assessment of the features of inelastic atom-surface scattering spectra that are produced by several different forms of linear and nonlinear phonon coupling to the projectile atom. Starting from a simple theoretical model of atom-surface scattering and employing several recently developed exact numerical and approximate analytical methods we calculate and compare the scattering probabilities ensuing from each form of interaction and from each calculational scheme. This enables us to demonstrate that in the regime of thermal energy atom scattering from surfaces the dominant contributions to the zero-, one- and multi-phonon excitation probabilities obeying unitarity arise from linear coupling treated to all orders in the interaction.

We develop a multidimensional coupled channel method suitable for studying the interplay of bound state resonance and phonon assisted scattering of inert gas atoms from solid surfaces in one, two and three dimensions. This enables us to get insight i nto the features that depend on the dimensionality of inelastic resonant processes typically encountered in low energy He atom scattering from surfaces, in general, and to elaborate on the observability of recently conjectured near threshold resonances in scattering from Einstein phonons, in particular.

The present work extends the well-known thermodynamic relation $C=beta ^{2}< delta {E^{2}}>$ for the canonical ensemble. We start from the general situation of the thermodynamic equilibrium between a large but finite system of interest and a generali zed thermostat, which we define in the course of the paper. The resulting identity $< delta beta delta {E}> =1+< delta {E^{2}}% > partial ^{2}S(E) /partial {E^{2}}$ can account for thermodynamic states with a negative heat capacity $C<0$; at the same time, it represents a thermodynamic fluctuation relation that imposes some restrictions on the determination of the microcanonical caloric curve $beta (E) =partial S(E) /partial E$. Finally, we comment briefly on the implications of the present result for the development of new Monte Carlo methods and an apparent analogy with quantum mechanics.
The equilibrium crystal shape (ECS) of oxygen-covered tungsten micricrystal is studied as a function of temperature. The specially designed ultrafast crystal quenching setup with the cooling rate of 6000 K/s allows to draw conclusions about ECS at hi gh temperatures. The edge-rounding transition is shown to occur between 1300 K and 1430 K. The ratio of surface free energies $gamma(111)/gamma(211)$ is determined as a function of temperature.
