Abstract

In this review experimental techniques developed in the past years in our laboratory concerning (i) the measurement of partial electron impact ionization cross sections, (ii) the determination of kinetic energy release distributions for fragment ions produced by spontaneous and electron-induced dissociations of molecular ions and (iii) the derivation of appearance energies for parent and fragment ions will be summarized and results will be given for the propane molecule as an example relevant for plasma applications.
