Publisher's Synopsis
The Theory of Ionization of Gases by Collision is a book written by John S. Townsend and first published in 1910. The book explores the phenomenon of ionization of gases, which occurs when a gas is subjected to a high voltage or other forms of energy. The author presents a theoretical analysis of the process of ionization and discusses the various factors that influence it, such as the nature of the gas, the temperature, and the pressure. The book also includes experimental results and data from various sources, which are used to support the theoretical framework presented by the author. The Theory of Ionization of Gases by Collision is considered a seminal work in the field of plasma physics and has been widely cited and referenced by subsequent researchers and scholars. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the study of ionization of gases and its applications in various fields, including plasma physics, chemistry, and engineering.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
