description

In a recent article Zhdanov studied the oscillating $\mathrm{NO}+{\mathrm{H}}_{2}$ reaction on the Pt(100) single-crystal surface [V. P. Zhdanov, Phys. Rev. E 59, 6292 (1999)]. We have scrutinized his model and found fundamental errors in the chemical modeling, in the modeling of the surface reconstruction and in the simulation procedure itself.
