This thesis investigates the reaction mechanisms of femtosecond-laser induced associative desorption from metal surfaces. The energy transfer between a metal substrate and an adsorbate occurs on an femtosecond (fs) timescale, mediated by coupling to the phonons and the electrons. The potential energy surfaces quantifying the forces between the atoms involved in a reaction are usually derived under the assumption that the electrons follow instantaneously the nuclear motion of the atoms. This is named the adiabatic or Born-Oppenheimer approximation. Thereby, non-adiabatic coupling effects between nuclear motions and electronic degrees of freedom are neglected. The applicability of the Born-Oppenheimer approximation to reactions on metal surfa...
