The Dependence of Electron Capture Rate Constants on Electronic Polarizability

  • Chapter
Gaseous Dielectrics VIII

Abstract

The second order rate constants for the thermal electron capture have been determined for a long time in many laboratories with a wide spectrum of different experimental techniques. However, there are not too many compounds investigated. Moreover, in most cases a large scattering of the results from different laboratories is observed. This could be caused either by not achieving the truly thermal distribution of electrons energy and/or not including the contribution from higher order electron attachment processes.
