Abstract
We present a consistent set of measurements of electron drift velocities an d Lorentz deflection angles for all noble gases with methane and ethane as quenchers in magnetic fields up to 0.8 T. Empirical descriptions are also p resented. Details on the World Wide Web allow for guided design and optimiz ation of future detectors. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserv ed.
