Abstract

The results of Monte Carlo calculations of the drift velocity of noble gas andmercury ions in a constant uniform electric field are presented. The dependences of the ion mobility on the field strength and gas temperature are analyzed. The parameters of the drift velocity approximation by the Frost formula for gas temperatures of 4.2, 77, 300, 1000, and 2000 K are presented. A universal drift velocity approximation depending on the reduced electric field strength and gas temperature is obtained.
