Abstract

At the low temperature limit, the effect on the size and shape factors of the adsorbate molecule is shown in a simulation of a monomolecular phase adsorbed on a heterogeneous surface. This factor is reflected both in the theoretical distribution of the adsorption energies and the packing of the adsorbed phase.
