20 pages: Setting the astrophysics and surface science scene, early developments in the area – experiments, theory, observations. H2 formation, other molecules formed on surfaces, conditions of astrophysical relevance: dense clouds, diffuse clouds, PDR, post-shock gasses, surfaces of astrophysical relevance: Carbonaceous surfaces, silicates, ices, bound states: physisorption, chemisorption, defects, reaction mechanisms: Langmuir-Hinshelwood, Eley-Rideal, hot atom, ice chemistry, surface morphology (result of surface reactions / influence on surface reactions), current state of the art.
