INTERACTIONS BETWEEN HYDROGEN AND OXYGEN ATOMS AND SURFACES.

Abstract

The ultimate goal of the research is to provide data concerning the transfer of energy and momentum between atoms and molecules and a solid surface in free molecule flow, and to investigate other processes that may occur in the gas-surface interaction. The program was conducted to provide the necessary boundary conditions to be used in the calculation of aerodynamic drag coefficients in rarefied gas flow. The modifications of the basic modulated atomic-beam machine used in the experiments are summarized. The general experimental method is discussed in some detail; however, experimental results are only outlined as the bulk of the work has been published previously; abstracts of these publications are included as appendices.
