Abstract
This paper, the third in a series of three, describes work carried in the context of Plasma Data Exchange Project of the Gaseous Electronics Conference (PDEP-GEC) to compare electron collision cross-sections sets from ground-state, noble gases atoms and to check their consistency with measured swarm parameters. Such consistency is a minimum requirement if the cross-section data are to be used for modelling low-temperature plasmas. In this paper, we present intercomparisons of the independently compiled sets of electron cross-sections from ground-state, neutral Kr and Xe atoms presently available on the LXCat open-access website (www.lxcat.laplace.univ-tlse.fr). Swarm parameters (reduced mobility, characteristic energy, reduced longitudinal diffusion coefficient, reduced ionization coefficient) calculated in a Boltzmann solver or Monte Carlo simulation using these cross-sections sets are compared with experimental data, also available online on the LXCat site.
