Scientific paper

An analysis is presented of inelastic collisions of electrons and air molecules in meteor trails, and the associated diffusion cooling. It is shown that the time of equalization of the electron temperature and the ambient air temperature is significantly less than that obtained in other studies which have taken into account only elastic collisions. In the former case, the equalization time amounts to several tens of milliseconds for the 95-105 km height range.
