Abstract

Electron drift characteristics in a helium-xenon mixture under an electric field strength E/N = 1 − 100Td are calculated and analyzed taking into account inelastic collisions. It was shown that a minor xenon additive to helium, beginning with percent fractions, has a significant effect on the discharge, in particular, on the characteristics of inelastic processes. The effect of the percentage of helium and xenon on electron drift, i.e., the diffusion and mobility coefficients, ionization frequency, etc. is studied.
