Collision Processes in Low-Temperature Hydrogen Plasmas
188 S., 2003
Collision processes among the constituents of low-temperature hydrogen plasmas
(e, H, H+, H- , H2 , H2+, H3) play a key role in technical plasma applications
as well as in the boundary regions of magnetically confined fusion plasmas. In this
work a review of the current knowledge on their cross sections is presented.
Collision processes of electronically and vibrationally excited species are also
included in the present review. The energy range in which these processes are considered
extends from thermal energies to several hundreds electronvolts (and to the
keVregion for some heavy-particle collision processes). The available experimental
and theoretical cross section information is critically assessed and presented in
form of analytic fit functions, convenient for use in plasma applications.
