Abstract

The diffusion coefficient of metastable Xe*(6s[3/2]2o) atoms has been measured in mixtures of Xe with rare gases. Experimental values ranging from 5.5× 1017 cm-1s-1 in pure Xe to 6.1× 1018 cm-1s-1 in pure He are compared with those obtained from the gas kinetic theory using Lennard-Jones potential parameters. Quenching rate coefficients of Xe* for two-body and three-body collisions with rare-gas atoms have also been determined.
