NON-RELATIVISTIC COLLISION THEORY ELEMENTARY COLLISION PROCESSES IN THE HIGH ATMOSPHERE,

Abstract

Many high-atmosphere phenomena - for example, the collision electron density in the E layer depend on collision rates which are not readily measurable in the laboratory. A number of such collision processes are listed and the presently available theoretical procedures for estimating their rates are briefly reviewed. (Author)
