Abstract

Two ionic neutralization reactions have been studied with a mass spectrometer and with a planar rf-conductivity probe in the decay of a dilute thermal plasma at 300°K produced by megavolt-electron bombardment of

O_{2}

mixtures at 2 to 22 Torr. For N

O^{+}

+ N

O_{2}^{-}

recombination we obtain a rate coefficient of (1.75 ± 0.6) ×
