Linear Ionization

Applicable units are those of quantitykind:LinearIonization

"Linear Ionization" is a description of how the ionization of an atom or molecule takes place. For example, an ion with a +2 charge can be created only from an ion with a +1 charge or a +3 charge. That is, the numerical charge of an atom or molecule must change sequentially, always moving from one number to an adjacent, or sequential, number. Using sequential ionization definition.

$N_{il} = \frac{1}{e}\frac{dQ}{dl}$, where $e$ is the elementary charge and $dQ$ is the average total charge of all positive ions produced over an infinitesimal element of the path with length $dl$ by an ionizing charged particle.
