“…It is not necessary that the mechanisms in low-pressure, low-current discharges in initially pure CO2 should be the same as those in the higher currents of flowing-gas continuous (5-20 mA cm-2) or pulsed (0.1-100 A cm-2) laser devices which operate with the carbon dioxide considerably diluted with nitrogen and helium at a total pressure of 10-30 Torr. Even so, the results of Corvin and Corrigan have been extrapolated to both these types of device (Wiegand et al 1970, Booth and Gibbs 1970, Lotkova et al 1971. We have examined these extrapolations by measuring the dissociation rates in various flowing-gas mixtures similar to those used in actual lasers, both for continuous and pulsed discharges.…”

“…(It is noteworthy that most of these metals and oxides also act as catalysts for the CO oxidation reaction. The fact that the degree of CO_ dissociation is indeed affected by the cathode surface chosen is also documented in the literature [ 6] . ) The use of one of these materials as a cold cathode exposes it to additional processes such as ion bombardment, photo-, fieldand thermal emission with the result that the surface has a tendency to stay ,in the higher oxidation state.…”

“…The accuracy of any measurement is finite. If the concentration of particles of one kind is determined independently by several (M) actinometers, and the results differ within the limits allowed by the accuracy of the intensity measurements and the discrepancy between the cross-sectional data in different sources without justified preference, the arithmetic mean is taken (39) The second approximation takes into account the fact that, in addition to the initial ones, other particles…”
