Abstract
Laser-inducd ionization signals are observed in a premixed C2H2/air flame at the sooting limit and are attributed to thermal ionization of very small particles. The mobilities of these species are derived from ion velocity measurements and compared with the mobility of Na+ for identical flame conditions.
