Termolecular ionic recombination at high ambient gas densityIt is shown that the importance of diffusion relative to drift in ion-ion recombination is a decreasing function of the separation between the ions (contrary to a common supposition). Langevin's formula for the recombination coefficient is obtained very simply using a physical model which allows for both diffusion and drift.
