Abstract

Abstract We report the results of an experimental study focused on the low-energy (10-100 eV) electron impact excitation of acetone. In the emission spectrum, the most prominent excited species were found to be the hydrogen Balmer series, the excited CH radical in the A and B electronic states, and atomic carbon. The presence of OH emission in the spectra confirms the tautomerization process induced by electron impact. The acetone emission spectra were measured at several different reaction energies, forming a unique 3D spectral electron energy map. Excitation-emission functions were determined for selected most prominent products.
