Electron Swarm Parameters in Krypton and its Momentum Transfer Cross Sections

  • Chapter

Abstract

The electron drift velocity (W) and the longitudinal diffusion coefficient (NDL, N: the gas number density) in pure krypton are measured over the range of E/N from 0.3 to 50 Td (lTd=10−17V·cm2). A momentum transfer cross section (Qm) for the krypton atom, which is consistent with both of the present swarm parameters, is also derived over the range of electron energy from 1 to 15 eV from a Boltzmann equation analysis.
