Interface phenomena are most fascinating because of the mixing of
different scales and the interference of diverse physical
processes. This makes it necessary to use different levels of
description: microscopic, kinetic, and gas-dynamical. A unified
quasiclassical approach is used to answer practical questions
dealing with inelastic gas-surface scattering, the kinetics of
adsorption layers, the evolution of inhomogeneities and defects at
the surface, the Knudsen layer, the development of boundary
conditions on the kinetic and gas-dynamical levels, the
determination of exchange and slip coefficients, and so on.
