      abstract     = {We present density-functional results on the lifetime of
                      the (111) surface state of the noble metals. We consider
                      scattering on the Fermi surface caused by impurity atoms
                      belonging to the 3d and 4sp series. The results are analyzed
                      with respect to film thickness and with respect to
                      separation of scattering into bulk or into surface states.
                      While for impurities in the surface layer the overall trends
                      are similar to the long-known bulk-state scattering, for
                      adatom-induced scattering we find a surprising behavior with
                      respect to the adatom atomic number. A plateau emerges in
                      the scattering rate of the 3d adatoms, instead of a peak
                      characteristic of the d resonance. Additionally, the
                      scattering rate of 4sp adatoms changes in a zigzag pattern,
                      contrary to a smooth parabolic increase following Linde's
                      rule that is observed in bulk. We interpret these results in
                      terms of the weaker charge screening and of interference
                      effects induced by the lowering of symmetry at the surface.},
