From your first draft:
Theoretically, the measured spacing between maxima or minima should increase linearly, due to the additional acceleration of electrons over the mean free path. If the electron beam has been accelerated to a potential that is equal to the discrete energy of the first excited level of Neon, inelastic collisions will occur. However, an electron must be close to a Neon atom in order for a collision to take place. The average distance that the electrons moves before the collision is known as the mean free path, $\lambda$. The electrons continue to gain energy over $\lambda$. If $\delta_{n}$ represents the energy gained by an electron over the mean free path, for $n$ inelastic collisions, the energy gained is:\\
\begin{equation}
