✦ Synopsis


Measurements of the dissociative ionization cross-sections of CO, CO,, NO and N,O molecules for electrons from 20 up to lo00 eV were performed. Total collection of ions was achieved by using a specially constructed cycloidal mass spectrometer, an ion source without slit and a collector with large area. In that open ion source the effusion molecular beam formed by a capillary was crossed by the electron beam. Owing to such parameters of the mass spectrometer the mass discrimination effects were reduced. At the ionization of CO molecules, the ions CO+, C+, 0' and C 0 2 + were registered; at CO,, the ions COz+, CO', O', C+ and CO:'; at NO, the ions NO', N', 0' and NO2+; at N,O, the ions N,O+, NO', N , ' , O', ( N ' , N:+) and NZOz+. The relative values of the partial cross-sections were normalized to the absolute total ionization cross-sections obtained by Rapp and Englander-Golden.
