Figure 1From: Electron excitation and energy transfer rates for H2O in the upper atmosphereIntegral cross sections. A selection of our linearly interpolated and extrapolated ICSs (cm2), as a function of electron energy (eV), as used in the present computations. The electronic state excitation cross sections are original to this work, while the vibrational excitation cross sections are from Yousfi and Benabdessadok [13]. The respective excitation processes are as labelled on the figure.Back to article page
