Abstract: We investigated the electron-impact processes involving hydrogen, lithium and sodium molecular cations. Rate coefficients for the dissociative recombination in domains of principal quantum numbers n ≥ 4 and temperatures from 500 K to 10 000K are reported. Considered collisional processes have an impact on the ionization level and atom excited-state populations as well on optical characteristics. The data are useful for the modeling of the kinetics of the Early Universe and for geocosmical plasma investigation.
