-**Ec** must be higher than that of the ionization energy **Ei** in order to ionize. This energy must also be high enough to incite at least 2 ionizations in order to trigger a "townsend cascade". We have looked at the ionisation energies of multiple elements and decided that we would like most to study the ionisation of nitrogen as it is inert and relatively safe. The down sides are that atomic N does not exist in nature and we will have to procede with N2. This choice also allows us to build the machine using nothing but "air" and the change to pure N2 will actually be an improvement on the system as Oxygen (21% of the air) requires more energy to ionize. Logistically, we also have relatively easy access to liquid nitrogen of which we hope to create a nitrogen rich environment.+  **Ec** must be higher than that of the ionization energy **Ei** in order to ionize.

 We will improve upon our current circuit by replacing **Ra** and **Rb** with a variable-resistance. In order to do this we will not only need to replace the resistors but also determine a means to recover the actively changing values of **Ra** and **Rb** as their values will have a direct impact on the power of the circuit.  We will improve upon our current circuit by replacing **Ra** and **Rb** with a variable-resistance.
