Abstract

The enrichment in energy of gaseous molecules from their first ionization energy will be considered as resulting from the following interactions:

  • Resonant photon absorption and photoionization

  • Resonant electron impact and electroionization

  • Charge exchange

  • Field ionization

  • Penning ionization
