Influence of auto-organization and fluctuations on the kinetics of a monomer-monomer catalytic scheme.
We study analytically the kinetics of an elementary bimolecular reaction scheme of the Langmuir-Hinshelwood type taking place on a d-dimensional catalytic substrate. We propose a general approach that takes into account explicitly the influence of spatial correlations on the time evolution of the mean particle density. With this approach, we recover some known results concerning the time evolution of the mean particle density and establish others.
