This research, part of the Experimental Physical Chemistry                      Program, is designed to develop predictive models for catalytic                 mechanisms and catalytic poisoning.  This research is supported                 by a Presidential Young Investigator (PYI) award.                                                                                                               Among the fundamental questions to be answered are: How many                    surface metal atoms participate in the bonding of a single                      adsorbate molecule?,  What are the relative contributions of                    metal s bonding of a single adsorbed particle?  and How do the                  electronic structure anmd geometry of the metal-adsorbate                       complex vary with metal cluster size and composition, and with                  coadsorption of other species?                                                                                                                                  The interaction of alkanes with size-selected metal clusters                    will be studied.  Coadsorption studies of carbon monoxide with                  hydrogen or nitric oxide will also be studied.  Techniques of                   time resolved laser spectroscopy will be used to obtain the                     dynamics, energy levels and structures of intermediate species.
