Abstract

 
 A plasma is a
 medium containing a large number of charged particle interactions. For this reason, it is common and appropriate to
 examine the plasma in terms of kinetic theory. In this context, the collision
 dynamics of the ‘O+ + N2
 → NO+ + N’ reaction for geomagnetically quiet day (04/09/2017)
 and disturbed day (08/09/2017) were calculated for ionospheric altitudes with
 the help of kinetic theory. As a result of the calculation, it was seen that
 the mean free path values were less on the disturbed day, as expected. The
 total collisions number was seen to reach maximum at the height of hmF2 on both
 quiet and disturbed days, and the disturbed day values were greater. It was
 seen that the collision frequency decreased exponentially with altitude.
