Abstract
In my talk, I will present an overview of ongoing work in the area of electron-ion, ion-ion, and ion-neutral reactions. Clearly, this is a very wide field. Rather than trying to cover the whole field, I will focus my discussion on effects which are of importance in high-pressure plasmas, where the “high pressure” regime is defined as that in which collision processes are significantly influenced by third-body effects. In the absence of experimental data on collision processes in high-pressure plasmas, models of such plasmas, for instance, electrical discharge or laser plasmas, often make use of rate coefficients that were obtained in low-pressure experiments. This may be justified in many cases, but the problem deserves some further scrutiny.
