Excerpt from Thermonuclear Reaction Rates in an Electrical Discharge
The theory presented here is also a linear one, applicable tosmall values of the electric field, but it is a different lineariza tion than the one adopted by Landshoff and Spitzer et al. Its purpose is to obtain a uniform approximation to the distribution function valid for large velocity as well as small. The extension of these results to larger values of E (i.e. The solution of the nonlinear problem) is being studied.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a theoretical foundation for analyzing thermonuclear reaction rates occurring within electrical discharges. It presents an asymptotic expression for the ion distribution that is valid for a wide range of ion speeds, from thermal to suprathermal. The formula derived in this book provides deeper insight into the dependence of reaction rates on electric field strength, temperature, and ion density. While it employs a linear approximation, the theory accounts for nonlinearities in the collision term and captures the essential features of the departure from a Maxwellian distribution. This book contributes to the understanding of thermonuclear reactions and may be of interest to researchers and students working in plasma physics, nuclear fusion, and related fields. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
