Generation and optimization of cross-sections for electron-C 4 F 7 N collisions
Abstract
Abstract A complete and consistent set of electron-neutral collision cross-sections for the novel insulating gas C 4 F 7 N is reported. The set is composed of a combination of cross-sections previously reported in literature, optimized via a genetic algorithm in conjunction with a multi-term Boltzmann equation solver, and calculatedab initiousing the R-matrix code Quantemol-EC. The finalized set accurately reproduces reported macroscopic rate and transport coefficients as well as Townsend coefficients and critical electric field strengths in C 4 F 7 N and its mixtures with nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and argon.
