The importance of “transition-probabilities” in modern physics is steadily increasing, and our knowledge of them has of late also made considerable progress; the values of several of them have now even been calculated directly by the wave-mechanics. The probability of excitation of a quantum-jump by electron-impact is, however, a noticeably backward branch of the subject: not only is it as yet almost untouched by theory; the experimental determinations are also somewhat scanty, more especially in the case of the inert gases. It is therefore of interest that some recent data of Townsend and McCallum allow an estimate to be made in the case of neon. It is not indeed possible to obtain from them the probability of any definite excitation, but a sort of “average of the sum of all probabilities” can be evaluated with fair certainty. The problem has not been attempted by the authors, and appears in fact difficult to treat by methods hitherto published; the line here developed seems to be new.
