AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECTS OF RADIATION OF THE PROPAGATION OF ELECTROMAGNETIC SIGNALS IN AIR

Abstract

The report begins with a description of several changes made in the optical spectrometer system and vacuum chamber. The results of mass spectrometer measure ments on irradiated gases are included; of particular importance in these results is the identification of O4 (+) as the dominant positive ion in O2 and 2-1, N2-O2 mixtures at least at pressures between 1 and 10 Torr. The results of electron loss rate measurements in N2-02 mixture are presented. Some atmospheric processes are mentioned.
