DESCRIPTION: The SIGLO database is the "in-house" data used by the group GREPHE at LAPLACE in Toulouse. The data are taken from different sources as indicated for each gas. Please refer to original sources in publications. An early version of this data file, "siglo.sec", was distributed with BOLSIG. The main changes in the present version are :
The format has been changed to be compatible with BOLSIG+.
Scale factors have been incorporated in the data and no longer appear explicitly.
We have removed the CF4 cross section data because of their limited precision (probably due to digitization errors). For the moment our recommendation is to use the dataset in the Morgan database.
He : The present data are from the compilation of A.V. Phelps (see reference in the Phelps data base).
O2 : We recommend using the data in the Phelps database for this species.
H2 : We recommend using the data in the Phelps database for this species.
Cl2 : The present data are an updated compilation (Jan 2012) by J Gregorio and LC Pitchford.
Cu : Feb 2012. Digitized from Tkachev A N, Fedenev A A and Yakovlenko S I, Laser Phys. vol.17, p. 775 (2007)
Kr : Nov 2012. We re-digitized the data from figs. 1 and 5 in H. Date, Y. Sakai and H. Tagashira, J. Phys. D 22 1478 (1989). With respect to the previous data from this same reference in the SIGLO database, there are some changes in the threshold values and in the magnitudes of the inelastic cross sections.
