摘要: The relaxation of N2(XΣg+1) molecules in a background gas composed N(4Su) atoms and free electrons is studied by using an ideal isochoric isothermic chemical reactor. A rovibrational state-to-state model developed to study energy transfer process induced electron atomic collisions. required cross sections the corresponding rate coefficients are taken from two well-known kinetic databases: NASA Ames mechanism for description N2(XΣg+1)–N(4Su) processes Phys4Entry database driven processes, N2(XΣg+1)–e−. evolution population densities each individual level explicitly determined via numerical solution master equation temperatures ranging 10000 30 000 K. It was found that distribution levels strongly influenced collisional which promote excitation low lying vibrational levels. macroscopic ...
