Abstract
Significant enrichment of deuterium has been demonstrated in flowing CH4‐H2 mixtures subjected to a low‐temperature glow discharge. In the best case, over 500% enrichment per stage was measured. A pronounced translational temperature effect was observed with the optimum enrichment occurring at Twall=−105 °C.Keywords
