Electron Optical Studies of Low-pressure Gases by Ladislaus Marton,David C. Schubert,S. R. Mielczarek Pdf
The goal of this work was to develop and demonstrate the suitability of electron optical techniques for recording the spatial distribution of gas molecules at fixed times with sufficient accuracy that the velocity distribution could be derived. The work concentrated on the properties of chopped molecular beam pulse correspond to a pressure of less than 10 to the minus 7th power Torr. The project was successful. During the course of this program, equipment was built, methods of operation were developed, the theory of the electron optical schlieren was developed in some detail, and ways of efficiently converting the data obtained into velocity distributions of the gas molecule were investigated.
