ASYMMETRICAL CHARGES. “Collisions between the ions and atmospheric aerosol lead to charge-exchange and electrification of the aerosol, and the ion asymmetry ensures that the collisions do not lead to an average charge of zero. Local electric fields can cause further asymmetries, by depletion of one sign of ion concentration, and consequently substantial aerosol electrification can occur in such regions.”
