Extract

The following is a preliminary account of experiments made in an attempt to obtain information about the relation between the energy of a positive ion and the effect produced on a surface which it bombards. The energy relations which hold in collisions between rapidly moving positive ions and the molecules of a gas or of a solid are of extreme importance in the theory of gaseous discharges at low pressures, in particular of the initiation of the self-sustained discharge.
