In this, the second part of a comprehensive study of electron drift and diffusion in counting gas mixtures, we report the results of calculations for pure Ne, pure CO2 and the mixtures Ne-20% CO2, Ne-10% CH4, Ne-20% CH4, A-10% CO2, A-20% CO2 and A-50% CO2. Values of drift velocity and of the transverse and longitudinal diffusion coefficients computed by Monte Carlo methods are shown to be in good agreement with the available experimental measurements in the range 0 ⩽ Ep ⩽ 2.0 V cm−1Torr−1.
