WHAT DOES IONISATION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Ionization

Ionization is the process by which an atom or a molecule acquires a negative or positive charge by gaining or losing electrons. Ionization results from the interaction of an atom or a molecule with a sub atomic particle or electromagnetic waves on the short wavelength end of the electromagnetic spectrum which have enough kinetic energy to cause ionization. Ionization can occur in the absence of an external influence by internal conversion process, through which an excited nucleus transfers its energy to one of the inner-shell electrons and ejects it with high kinetic energy. The ionization process is of particular interest in fundamental science. It is also encountered in many fields of practical interest, ranging from mass spectroscopy to radiotherapy for eliminating cancer cells. Obviously, all aspects of the ionization process cannot be addressed in a single encyclopedic article. Here, ionization is described by invoking the simple case of an atom in strong laser field. The case is amenable to analytic treatment and represents the main characteristics of the process.
