✦ Synopsis

A modified bard-sphere model for electron capture by small aggregates is used to derive an expression for the rate constants for thermionic emission from isolated aggregates of matter. Its connection with earlier models for autoionization is indicated. The use of generalized Arrhenius plots for comparing experiment and theory is outlined.
