Gas Ionization

Gas Ionization is the physical process in which neutral gas molecules or atoms acquire or lose electrons to become electrically charged species due to high-energy conditions characteristic of hypersonic flows, thereby distinguishing it from other gas dynamic phenomena by its dependence on collisional and radiative energy thresholds that induce plasma formation.
