Ah Hah! NOW I begin to understand the world of atoms and molecules a little
more betterer <g>.
I was under the impression that 'motion' in this context was a reference to
'velocity', and this is why I thought that due to the 'velocity' of ion or
molecule movement, combined with the 'G' forces required for penetration of
that barrier, there would be some 'major' event {at an atomic scale of course,
and only a 'flash' moment in time} occurring upon impact.
Thank you for that simplisitic explanation.
