On Electron Beam Ionization of Air and Chemical Reactions for Disturbed Air Deionization

Abstract

An overview of the electron beam ionization and deionization of the dry and wet air is presented. Ionization calculation schemes are discussed and the pertinent reaction rates for the relaxation of disturbed air are reviewed. The review gives the magnitudes and the temperature range over which the coefficients are measured. Recommendations are made to extend rate coefficient measurements to higher temperatures for some specific reactions. (Author)
