The electron attachment rate constants of bromine compounds in the buffer gases of N/sub 2/ and Ar (approx.250 Torr) were measured as a function of E/N (or mean electron energy). The measured electron attachment rate constants of HBr, CH/sub 3/Br, and C/sub 2/H/sub 5/Br show maximum values of 1.05 x 10/sup -9/, 1.08 x 10/sup -11/, and 9.3 x 10/sup -11/ cm/sup 3//s at mean electron energies of 0.55, 0.4, and 0.8 eV, respectively. The electron drift velocities for the gas mixtures of CH/sub 3/Br in N/sub 2/ and Ar were also measured.
