32. a species, as a result of background hydrogen adsorption, since the intensity of this feature is attenuated upon heating the crystal above room temperature.
33. While this is the same peak position for atomic sulfur following decomposition of methanethiol on Fe(110)-p(2 × 2)-S, the peak is much too large to be attributed to cleavage of the C-S bond at 100 K, which on the clean surface is less than 20%.
34. The evolution of methyl radical was confirmed by deconvolution of the m/e = 15 peak area with the associated cracking area for pure methane which in this case was 0.83 for m/e. 15:16 ratio. This compensates for any signal in m/e = 15 that may be associated with fragmentation of methane.
