Cross sections for the dissociative attachment of electrons to NO

Cross sections for the production of O^- by electron attachment to NO are reported. It is found that the maximum value of the cross section is about 52% higher than the only other previous measurement of Rapp and Briglia (1965). Cross sections for the process of polar dissociation (e+NO to N⁺+O^-) have also been measured and the threshold energy for this process has been obtained
