Dissociative attachment of an electron to a molecule: kinetic theory

Statistical Mechanics 2009-11-11 v1

Abstract

Test particles interact with a medium by means of a bimolecular reversible chemical reaction. Two species are assumed to be much more numerous so that they are distributed according fixed distributions: Maxwellians and Dirac's deltas. Equilibrium and its stability are investigated in the first case. For the second case, a system is constructed, in view of an approximate solution.
