Formation of C- by radiative association

In the present paper the problem of the radiative association of atoms of carbon C with electrons $e^{-}$ for kinetic temperatures $T_{c}$ of $100 < T_{c} < 3000$ K is considered. The calculation of the rate rate constant of the radiative associations is made with principle of detailed balance. It is shown that the rate has correct behavior (it increase with the temperature) and its behavior is look-like that for the $H^{-}$ formation rate coefficient, which also increase with the temperature.
