Yes, that snippet of code loads a mobility file.

So how to generate the IonMobility.txt?

You can find ion mobility files for a few gases in the Data directory of the Garfield++ source tree. These values are taken from literature, in particular from these compilations of tabulated ion transport data:

http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0092-640X(76)90001-2
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0092-640X(78)90014-1
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0092-640X(84)90018-4
http://dx.doi.org/10.1006/adnd.1995.1004

In these papers, there are data for quite a lot of combinations of gas mixtures and ions; if there’s a particular one that’s interesting for you we can just add a file to the Data directory.

Hi,
Thanks a lot for your reply and I realize it now.
Besides would you please help me to take a look at the weight.lis problem for no induced current. It’s really a key problem for me to be solved and I really need your help.
Thanks again for your help.
