Boltz: A code to solve the transport equation for electron distributions and then calculate transport coefficients and vibrational excitation rates in gases with applied fields

Title of program: BOLTZ
Catalogue Id: ACWX_v1_0

Nature of problem
BOLTZ is a set of two programs which calculates the electron distribution, transport coefficients, and electron vibrational excitation rates in a gas mixture with an applied electric field. With the test deck provided, BOLTZ calculates the excitation rates needed for TLASER - a laser kinetics code for CO2 : N2 : He lasers. Given the necessary cross-section data BOLTZ will calculate the electron distribution etc. for any gas mixture.
