Abstract :
Air ion concentration and composition belong to the frequently monitored parameters of the atmosphere. Their influence on living organisms has been the subject of intensive studies. This paper deals with measuring of air ions concentration and their mobility spectrum. The most used measuring method is ¿aspiration method¿. The feature of the aspiration condenser with segmented inner electrode and the classic integrative aspiration condenser for determination of air ions spectrum mobility will be compared.
