A model for the adsorption of a binary mixture on a one-dimensional infinite
lattice with nearest neighbour cooperative effects is considered. The particles
of the two species are both monomers but differ in the repulsive interaction
experienced by them when trying to adsorb. An exact expression for the coverage
of the lattice is derived. In the jamming limit, it is a monotonic function of
the ratio between the attempt frequencies of the two species, varying between
the values corresponding to each of the two single species. This is in contrast
with the results obtained in other models for the adsorption of particles of
different sizes. The structure of the jamming state is also investigated.Comment: v2: Errors in the figures fixed; same text; 23 pages, 5 figures.
