The rate at which gaseous ions neutralize each other has been measured in a variety of gases over a relatively wide pressure range. The results indicate that neutralization occurs by parallel bimolecular and termolecular processes. The rate of the termolecular process is sensitive to the nature of the inert gas in which recombination occurs. Two mechanisms for the termolecular process are discussed.
