Abstract
Values of the electron drift velocity, the longitudinal diffusion coefficient and the transverse diffusion coefficient, for electron swarms in nitrogen over the range 50 Td<or=E/N<or=500 Td have been determined by a method of counting and analysing the photons produced by such an electron swarm in a drift tube. A measure of the nitrogen E state deactivation rate is presented.
