Aerosol Charge Distributions Produced by Radioactive Ionizers

Abstract

This report is an analysis of the physical mechanisms that control the aerosol charge distribution established by radioactive neutralizers. Theoretical calculations and modeling is supplemented by experimental findings obtained with both commercially available ionizers of our own design. Keywords: Ionizers, Aerosols, Singly charged particles.
