Abstract: | Absolute values of the emission cross sections for five vibrational bands in the Meinel system of N2+,A2πu to X2Σg+, excited by electron impact are presented. From these, a value was obtained for the total excitation cross section of the A2πu state at 100 eV of 26·5 × 10−18 cm2. The results are compared with those of other workers and with theory. Collisional transfer of the excitation energy from the levels of the A2πu state was also observed with a transfer cross section of approximately 10−14 cm2. |
