Note on the relativistic reaction rate coefficient

Author

Listed:
  • Kremer, G.M.

Abstract

The first approximation to the reaction rate coefficient is determined by considering the equilibrium Maxwell–Jüttner distribution function and relativistic reactive differential cross-sections which take into account the activation energy of the chemical reaction. It is shown how the reaction rate coefficient behaves as a function of the activation energy when the mixture evolves with respect to the ratio of the rest energy and the thermal energy of the relativistic mixture.
