Two different types of laser-induced gas-phase rate processes are studied theoretically: collisional ionization and multiphoton resonances in atom-atom scattering. The first involves the coupling between bound and continuum electronic states, and the second between bound and continuum vibrational states. In connection with surface processes, the use of a laser to excite electrons from the valence band to surface states of a semiconductor and the resulting effect on an adspecies is explored.

Various theoretical approaches to laser-induced molecular dynamics in the context of multiphoton processes are reviewed. The presentation is divided into two general categories: gas-phase processes and surface processes. Within the first category, unimolecular dynamics and molecular collisions are addressed. Within the second category, energy flow in adspecies-surface systems is examined, and laser applications to surface chemistry are discussed.

A review of theoretical work by the author and collaborators and related experiments is presented for two segments of laser-induced chemistry: molecular dynamics and rate processes in the gas phase and at a solid surface and gas-surface interface. For the gas phase, the focus is on situations where the radiation interacts directly with the dynamics to enhance or create new processes. The field of laser-surface chemistry is still undergoing a procedure of definition, and progress to date is discussed. Theoretical failures as well as successes are analyzed and viewpoints are offered as to new directions for both theory and experiment. (Author).
