Abstract
A brief explanation is given of the process of the liberation of electrons from a solid target as a result of incident positive ions, as well as a survey of the results of known experiments. The principle of the method is explained and a description given of the actual apparatus used to measure the emission factor of electrons from a graphite target, caused by the incidence of positive mercury ions. The actual measurements were carried out on electrographite of varying origin and treatment. The results of the measurements were used in a number of conclusions reached on the processes of the liberation of electrons by positive ions and in its evaluation from the point of view of mercury rectifiers.
