    "abstract": "We present results of wavepacket simulations of scattering of an oriented\nmethane molecule from a flat surface including all nine internal vibrations. At\na translational energy up to 96 kJ/mol we find that the scattering is almost\ncompletely elastic. Vibrational excitations when the molecule hits the surface\nand the corresponding deformation depend on generic features of the potential\nenergy surface. In particular, our simulation indicate that for methane to\ndissociate the interaction of the molecule with the surface should lead to an\nelongated equilibrium C--H bond length close to the surface.",
