    Co2 Ionization
AI Thread Summary
Ionizing nitrogen (N2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) at a flow rate of 50g/s can be achieved by increasing the temperature sufficiently. High temperatures facilitate the ionization process, although the discussion does not confirm if this is the easiest method. Other potential methods for ionization were not explored in detail. The feasibility and efficiency of achieving such high flow rates remain uncertain. Overall, heating appears to be a primary consideration for ionization in this context.

hi everyone,
is it possible to easily ionize N2 and CO2 at a high flow about 50g/s, and which is the easiest way?
thanks

I don't know if it is the easiest, but the most obvious is making it hot enough.
 
Thread 'Gauss' law seems to imply instantaneous electric field'
Imagine a charged sphere at the origin connected through an open switch to a vertical grounded wire. We wish to find an expression for the horizontal component of the electric field at a distance ##\mathbf{r}## from the sphere as it discharges. By using the Lorenz gauge condition: $$\nabla \cdot \mathbf{A} + \frac{1}{c^2}\frac{\partial \phi}{\partial t}=0\tag{1}$$ we find the following retarded solutions to the Maxwell equations If we assume that...
Maxwell’s equations imply the following wave equation for the electric field $$\nabla^2\mathbf{E}-\frac{1}{c^2}\frac{\partial^2\mathbf{E}}{\partial t^2} = \frac{1}{\varepsilon_0}\nabla\rho+\mu_0\frac{\partial\mathbf J}{\partial t}.\tag{1}$$ I wonder if eqn.##(1)## can be split into the following transverse part $$\nabla^2\mathbf{E}_T-\frac{1}{c^2}\frac{\partial^2\mathbf{E}_T}{\partial t^2} = \mu_0\frac{\partial\mathbf{J}_T}{\partial t}\tag{2}$$ and longitudinal part...
