Abstract
A reaction-diffusion master equation has been introduced in order to model the bistable CO oxidation on single crystal metal surfaces at high pressure where the diffusion length becomes small and local fluctuations are important. Analytical solutions can be found in a reduced one-component nonlinear master equation after applying the Weiss mean-field approximation together with the adiabatic elimination of oxygen. It is shown that the Weiss mean-field approximation predicts a symmetry-breaking bifurcation associated with a phase transition. The corresponding stationary solutions of the nonlinear master equation are supported by Gillespie-type Monte Carlo simulations.
