Zusammenfassung |
In this paper we present the results of a
study of the electron cooling rate, the production rates of vibrationally
excited N2(v), and the production frequency of the N2
vibrational quanta arising from the collisions of electrons with unexcited N2(0)
and vibrationally excited N2(1) molecules as functions of the
electron temperature. The electron energy transfer rates for vibrational
excitation of N2 have been calculated and fit to analytical
expressions by use of the revised vibrationally excited N2 cross
sections. These new analytical expressions are available to the researcher for
quick reference and accurate computer modeling with a minimum of calculations.
