✦ Synopsis

Evidence is presented concerning the hypothesis that all physisorption potentials have a common form. Input comes from atomic and molecular beam scattering., LEED and thermodynamic data and theoreticlll calculations. We conclude that a smaller force constant and softer repulsion occur for liiht gases interacting with insulators than with graphite or metals. * Prescnr addresses. thesis by construction, withg = -z*-~_ & seen in * Research supported by NSFgants CHE-8206487 and DMl Vidali and Cole [6] present a simple espression for C, and 8113162 and ONR Contract N0014-SOC-0447. compare it with existing cakulatioxu 0 031-9163/S3/0000-0000/S 03.?0 0 1983 North-Holland
