We study the deposition of line segments on a two-dimensional square lattice. The estimates for the coverage at jamming obtained by Monte-Carlo simulations and by $7^{th}$-order time-series expansion are successfully compared. The non-trivial limit of adsorption of infinitely long segments is studied, and the lattice coverage is consistently obtained using these two approaches.
We compute the time-dependent coverage in the random sequential adsorption of aligned d-dimensional cubes in $R^d$ using time-series expansions. The seventh-order series in 2, 3 and 4 dimensions is resummed in order to predict the coverage at jamming. The result is in agreement with Monte-Carlo simulations. A simple argument, based on a property of the perturbative expansion valid at arbitrary orders, allows us to analytically derive some generalizations of the Palásti approximation.
