DRAFT DEFINITION |
Electron affinity |
---|
The electron affinity of M is the minimum energy required for the process
where M-????????????????????? and M are in their ground rotational, vibrational and electronic states and the electron has zero kinetic energy. |
Considered between 2004 and 2006 but not included in the 2006 PAC submission |
This is an unofficial draft definition presented for information and comment. |
Orange Book Entry
The electron affinity of a species M is defined as the minimum energy required for the process
M-????????????????????? → M + e
where M-????????????????????? and M are in their ground rotational, vibrational and electronic states and the electron has zero potential and kinetic energy.
