Diffusion in P10 (Calculated)

The following diffusion values were calculated by Blair Stringfellow using Magboltz 1 (Biagi, 1995). The assumed temperature and pressure were similar, if not identical, to the STAR operating conditions (~2 mbar above the ambient atmospheric pressure with E ~ 148 V/cm and T ~ 75F=23.9C) .

 

  E (V/cm)
B (kG) 50 100 150 200
0.0 600 580 580 583
1.0 460 481 505 524
2.0 320 353 391 423
3.0 247 280 324 361
4.0 200 233 278 318
5.0 167 200 244 285

Calculated transverse diffusion [um/sqrt(cm)] in P10 for parallel E and B.

 

E (V/cm)
50 75 100 125 150 175 200
612 477 407 368 344 326 312

Calculated longitudinal diffusion [um/sqrt(cm)] in P10 for parallel
E and B. Values are nearly independent of the magnitude of B.
