Abstract

This paper describes the information for quantitative simulation of weakly ionized plasma. In previous paper, we calculated the electron transport coefficients in pure Xenon gas by using two-term approximation of Boltzmann equation. Therefore, in this paper, we calculated the electron transport coefficients(W, $N{\cdot}D_L$ and $D_{L/{\mu}}$) in pure Xenon gas for range of E/N values from 0.01 ~ 500[Td] at the temperature was 300[K] and pressure was 1[Torr] by using multi-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation by Robson and Ness, The results of two-term and multi-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation has been compared with the experimental data by L. S. Frost and A. V. Phelps for a range of E/N.
