THE KINETICS OF IONIZATION PROCESSES IN GASES
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4763772
BS>Currently available knowledge of the kinetics of ionization is presented. The production of ionization is covered by a description of electrical discharges in gases, including direct and alternating current discharges. Photoionization and ionization by shock waves are described. The measurement of ionization includes a description of electrostatic probes, microwave probing signals, mass spectrometer probe, and shock tubes. Photoionization instrumentation is described. Results of kinetic investigations are presented and the ionization processes occurring in the atmosphere are analyzed. (auth)
