Abstract : We propose an analytic model that allows rapid computation of the secondary ion production due to electron impact from the primary photo-production in the ionosphere of Titan. The model parameters are given for each of the 5 major ion productions (N+2, CH+4, N+, CH+3, N++2) as well as for the electron production.
