A fast computation of the diurnal secondary ion production in the ionosphere of Titan

We propose an analytic model that allows rapid computation of the secondary ion production due to electron impact from the primary photo-production in the ionosphere of Titan. The model parameters are given for each of the 5 major ion productions (N-2(+), CH4+, N+, CH3+, N-2(++)) as well as for the electron production. (c) 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
