Ionization Produced by 5-Mev Alpha Particles in Argon Mixtures
Ionization Produced by 5-Mev Alpha Particles in Argon Mixtures is a scholarly work, published in 1954 in ''Physical Review''. The main subjects of the publication include molar ionization energies of the elements, alpha particle, ionization, impurity, physics, argon, Thermal ionization, chemical ionization, density functional theory, low-energy electron diffraction, Atmospheric-pressure laser ionization, atomic physics, materials science, superfluid helium-4, and metastability. These effects are studied as a function of the ionization potential of the added impurity and it is found that the ionization increases even when the ionization potential is much higher than the well-known metastable state of argon.
