The electron drift velocity and electron average energy for low-energy electrons in binary gas mixtures of Ar-C0/sub 2/, Ar-N/sub 2/, Ar-H/sub 2/, and Ar-CO were determined using two theoretical methods of approach: (1) a "distribution function," or "Boltzmann equation" approach; and (2) an "average electron" approach. The results of the two theoretical methods of approach were compared and discussed. (auth)
