Abstract
A corrected curve of free ion yield versus electric field is given for n-hexane as well as new curves for 2-methylpentane, 2,2,4-trimethylpentane, and carbon tetrachloride. Comparison with the Onsager theory of geminate ion recombination does not give reasonable agreement over the entire range of field strengths for any of the functions used.(AIP)Keywords
