Electron Impact Rate Coefficients for the Low Lying Metastable States of O, O+, N and N+.

Abstract

A set of electron impact excitation rate coefficients for the low lying metastable states of O, N, O(+), and N(+) are presented. These rates are obtained using recent and more accurate cross sections. These species play an important role in the emission, deionization processes and communication problems of a disturbed atmosphere. (Author)
