Abstract
The equations of isothermal kinetics (8.3.7)–(8.3.9) for the one-particle distribution function can include lateral interactions both via the dependence of the transition probabilities on the coverage (the mean-field approximation) and via direct correlations between elementary processes in different cells. The strict consideration of the problem of lateral interaction may be given by methods of statistical thermodynamics.
