Abstract

We have comprehensively reviewed and critically assessed the state of knowledge on electron-interaction cross sections and electron-swarm parameters in SF6. In this paper are presented our: (1) assessed data for the total electron scattering, elastic integral, elastic momentum, total ionization, and dissociative and nondissociative electron attachment cross sections; (2) deduced cross sections for the total vibrational excitation and total dissociation into neutrals; and (3) assessed data for the coefficients of electron-impact ionization, effective ionization, electron attachment, electron drift, and electron diffusion.
