The research on gaseous electronics reaches back more than 100
years. With the growing importance of gas lasers in so many
research and industrial applications as well as power systems
generating, transmitting, and distributing huge blocks of
electrical power, the body of literature on cross sections, drift
and diffusion, and ionization phenomena continues to bloom.
Searching through this vast expanse of data is a daunting and
time-consuming task. With this in mind, eminent researcher Gorur
Govinda Raju presents an authoritative survey of the ballooning
literature on gaseous electrical discharge.
Gaseous Electronics: Theory and Practice begins with an overview
of the physics underlying the collisions involved in discharge,
scattering, ion mobilities, and the various cross-sections and
relations between them. A discussion follows on experimental
techniques used to measure collision cross-sections, covering the
techniques related to the data presented in later chapters. In an
unprecedented collection of data and analysis, the author supplies
comprehensive cross-sections for rare gases such as Argon, Helium,
Krypton, and Xenon; various diatomics; and complex molecules and
industrial gases including hydrocarbons. He further includes
discussions and analyses on drift and diffusion of electrons,
ionization coefficients, attachment coefficients, high-voltage
phenomena, and high-frequency discharges.
Based on more than 40 years of experience in the field, Gaseous
Electronics: Theory and Practice places a comprehensive collection
of data together with theory and modern practice in a single,
concise reference.
