Abstract The present status of experimental and theoretical work on continuous wave laser-assisted reaction of metals with oxygen is presented. Differences between this and normal isothermal oxidation of metals are emphasized. Available theoretical models are discussed. They deal with roles of thermal history, feedback effects between optical absorption and reaction rate. The nature of so-called “non-purely thermal” effects is discussed. Hints for further research are presented.
