Low Energy Electron and Photon Cross Sections for O, N2, and O2 and Related Data.

Abstract

The purpose of this report is to provide a set of low energy (0-300 eV) cross sections for use in calculating the photoelectron flux in the terrestrial daytime ionosphere. Also given are data on the neutral particle composition of the upper atmosphere and ionizing electromagnetic radiation from the sun.
