Reactions w/ background plasma
Neutral reactions
- Collisions with plasma ions (D+ or T+)
- Charge exchange (H+ + CxHy ? CxHy+ + H)
- Collisions with electrons
- Ionization (e- + CxHy ? CxHy+ + 2e-)
- Dissociative Ionization (e- + CxHy ? CxHy-1+ + H + 2e-)
- Dissociation (e- + CxHy ? CxHy + H + e-)
Ion reactions
- Dissociative recombination (e- + CxHy+ ? CxHy-1 + H)
