Modeling of Mutual Anion-Cation Neutralization Processes

Abstract

This report results from a contract tasking Laser-Laboratorium Gottingen (LLG) as follows: The Grantee investigated the basic processes in the dynamics of electron-catalyzed mutual neutralization of plasmas. He has arrived at a better quantitative understanding of the rates of 'normal' neutralization processes (1) and the energy partitioning in them. Additionally he compared various options for a theoretical understanding of the electron-catalyzed process (2) and has furthered the most probable explanations.
