Abstract

The total electron attachment rate constant for SF₆ measured by us in gaseous Ar and Xe over an extended energy range is compared with that measured by others in liquid Ar and Xe. A similar comparison is made for the electron transport coefficients. The thermal value of the total electron attachment rate constant for SF₆ in gaseous, (k_a)_G,th, and in liquid, (k_a)_L,th, argon are virtually identical and both are approximately 3 times smaller than the maximum s-wave thermal rate constant.
