Abstract

Measurements of the drift velocity and the ratio of diffusion coefficient to mobility have been made for electrons in parahydrogen at 77°K. The differences in the transport coefficients in normal hydrogen and parahydrogen demonstrate the influence of the difference in the statistical weights of the rotational levels in the two gases.
