  We report results of the first computer simulation studies of a physically
adsorbed gas on a quasicrystalline surface, Xe on decagonal Al-Ni-Co. The grand
canonical Monte Carlo method is employed, using a semi-empirical gas-surface
interaction, based on conventional combining rules, and the usual Lennard-Jones
Xe-Xe interaction. The resulting adsorption isotherms and calculated structures
are consistent with the results of LEED experimental data. The evolution of the
bulk film begins in the second layer, while the low coverage behavior is
epitaxial. This transition from 5-fold to 6-fold ordering is temperature
dependent, occurring earlier (at lower coverage) for the higher temperatures.
