Abstract
Specific features of inhomogeneous ionization resulting from radioactive po llution in the lower atmosphere are investigated. A model of track ionizati on of air is proposed that allows for such elementary processes as kinetics , molecular diffusion, and drift of ions in an electric field. The applicab ility limits of the model are determined. (C) 2000 MAIK "Nauka/Interperiodi ca".
