Abstract

AbstractA full explanation of the M‐effect, namely the reduction of the neon emission spectra practically to only one line of wavelength λ1 = 585.3 nm, when the filling gas is a mixture Ne + Ar + H2 or Ne + Xe + H2 is presented. The M‐effect is explained by ion‐ion recombination according to the reaction Ne+ H– = Ne*(2p1)+H, which feeds selectively the level 2p1 of neon. All observed behavior of the M‐effect is explained by polar recombination. Extension of the M‐effect to other gas mixtures containing at least one electronegative component is also underlined.
