  1. Dissociative recombination

    Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Dissociative recombination is a process where a positive molecular ion recombines with an electron, and as a result, the neutral molecule dissociates. This reaction is important for extraterrestrial and atmospheric chemistry. On Earth , dissociative recombination is practically non existent, as free electrons would react with any molecule even neutral molecules they encounter. Even in the best laboratory conditions, dissociative recombination is hard to observe. In astrophysics , dissociative recombination is one of the main paths via which molecules are broken down, and other molecules are formed. The existence of dissociative recombination is possible due to the vacuum of the interstellar medium .

  1. Plasma recombination

    Unreferenced date October 2008 Plasma recombination is a process by which ion s of a Plasma physics plasma capture the free energetic electron s to form new neutral atom s. Recombination usually take place in the whole volume of a plasma volume recombination , although in some cases it is confined to some special region of it. Each kind of reaction is called a recombining mode and their individual rates are strongly affected by the properties of the plasma such as its energy heat , density of each species, pressure and temperature of the surrounding environment. Especially volume recombination is a very unlikely process at pressures below 1× 10 sup 4 sup   Pa because of the conservation of energy and momentum. A third body is needed to satisfy the conservation laws. If the volume of the plasma is confined by a body the walls play the role of the third body. So recombination mostly occurs at the walls. Hydrogen recombination modes are of vital importance in the development of divertor regions for tokamak reactors. In fact they will provide a good way for extracting the energy produced in the core of the plasma. At the present time, it is believed that the most likely plasma losses observed in the recombining region are due to two different modes electron ion recombination EIR and molecular activated recombination MAR . physics stub Category Plasma physics Recombination, plasma ...   more details

  1. Non-radiative recombination

    unreferenced date March 2010 Non radiative recombination is a process in phosphor s and semiconductor s, whereby charge carrier s carrier generation and recombination recombine without releasing photon s. A phonon is released instead. Non radiative recombination in optoelectronics and phosphors is an unwanted process, lowering the light generation efficiency and increasing heat losses. Shockley Read Hall SRH process The electron in transition between electronic band structure bands passes through a new energy state created within the band gap by an impurity in the crystal lattice . The impurity state can absorb differences in momentum between the carriers, and so this process is the dominant generation and recombination process in silicon and other indirect bandgap materials. It can also dominate in direct bandgap materials under conditions of very low charge carrier density carrier densities very low level injection . The energy is exchanged in the form of lattice vibration, or a phonon exchanging thermal energy with the material. Various impurities and dislocation s create energy level s within the band gap corresponding to neither donor nor acceptor levels, forming deep level trap s. Non radiative recombination occurs primarily at such sites. Category Charge carriers ...   more details

    The meiotic recombination checkpoint monitors the Meiotic recombination In eukaryotes meiotic recombination during meiosis , and blocks the entry into Metaphase I Metaphase I metaphase I if the recombination is not efficiently processed. Meitotic recombination contributes to the cells in two different ways. First, to achieve proper segregation, each pair of homologous chromosomes must be linked to each other to maintain a certain level of tension between them. Such tension is supposed to help the assembly of spindles and generally depends on meitotic recombination. Secondly, Meitotic recombination increases the genetic diversity of gametes, making them readily adapt to new environment.

  1. Four-gamete test

    Confusing date July 2008 In population genetics , the four gamete test is a method for detecting historical Genetic recombination recombination events ref cite pmid 4029609 ref . Description Given a set of four or more sampled haploid chromosomes , the four gamete test FGT detects recombination events by locating pairs of segregating site s that cannot have arisen without either recombination or a repeat mutation . Under the infinite sites assumption i.e. repeat mutations have zero probability , the probability of a repeat mutation is zero, and hence a recombination event is inferred. For example, if the data being studied consists of bi allelic single nucleotide polymorphism data, then the following configuration could be generated without recombination. class wikitable Chromosome Site 1 Site 2 1 0 0 2 1 0 3 1 0 4 0 1 However, the following configuration cannot be generated without recombination. class wikitable Chromosome Site 1 Site 2 1 0 0 2 1 0 3 0 1 4 1 1 The FGT detects calls a recombination event if the above configuration in occurs in the data. The data in the above configuration is considered to be incompatible with any non recombining ancestral history. The FGT has low statistical power to detect recombination. Furthermore, the FGT is suitable only when the mutation rate is significantly smaller than the recombination rate. If the mutation rate is high, then the infinite sites assumption is violated. For example, the FGT is generally suitable for human datasets, but is unsuitable for bacterial datasets.
