Calculation of Particle Distribution in Partially Ionized Molecular Clouds

Abstract

A relatively dense cloud of interstellar matter where hydrogen gas is primarily in molecular form are referred as molecular clouds. The interstellar clouds are called dense molecular clouds which contains a high fraction of molecules. Star forming interstellar clouds are partially ionized by different ionizing sources and the constituent particles viz-electron and dust do not follow Boltzmanian distribution. We present here the Non-Boltzmanian distribution of such particles viz electron and ions.
