DESCRIPTION: These data represent a complete and consistent set of electron scattering cross sections with methane. The data is largely based on experimental observations, with the exception of neutral dissociation processes for which analytical approximations have been used. Moreover, these cross sections show good agreement with measured swarm parameters without relying on any swarm-fitting techniques.
