The chemical effects which result from the passage of energetic atoms through liquid or gaseous media, have been studied by means of exact methods of the theory of probability. The distribution function for the number of hot products has been determined in terms of the efficiency of reaction upon collision.

Using the model established in paper I [1], the chemical effects which result from a multiplying system of hot particles have been studied. The «first collision equation » treatment of the general Markoff cascade is applied to hot atoms. Semi-invariants characterizing the distribution of the number of hot products (average value and dispersion) may be computed, by using the generating function of that distribution.
