Abstract

The reactions of Ne 2+, presumably in the 3 P State, with H 2, N 2, O 2, CO, CO 2, C 2H 2, Ar, Kr and Xe have been investigated partly in a SIFT (selected-ion flow tube), at room temperature, and partly in a drift tube, as a function of relative kinetic energy KE cm in the regime from near thermal energy up to a few tenths of an eV. All these reactions are fast, with rate coefficients close to the Langevin limiting values. The reactions investigated in the drift experiments show no energy dependence, with the exception of the reaction with H 2, the rate coefficient of which declines with increasing KE cm, behavior that is explained using the Landau—Zener model.
