This study presents a Monte Carlo simulation tool for modeling the transportation processes of thermal electrons in noble liquids, specifically focusing on liquid argon and liquid xenon. The study aims to elucidate the microscopical mechanisms governing the drift and diffusion of electrons within the context of time projection chambers (TPCs), with detailed considerations of coherent electron-atom scattering and electric field force. The simulation tool is implemented in the Geant4 framework, allowing for the exploration of electron transport parameters, including drift velocity, longitudinal diffusion coefficient, and transverse diffusion coefficient. The simulation is validated by comparing its results for drift velocity and diffusion coefficients with experimental measurements, revealing reasonable agreement in the low to moderate electric field ranges. Discrepancies between the simulation and experimental measurements are discussed, emphasizing the necessity for enhanced cross-section calculations and high-precision sampling. Despite certain limitations, the simulation tool provides valuable insights into electron transport in noble liquids, establishing a foundation for future enhancements and applications in various research areas

开发用于模拟稀有液体中电子传输的蒙特卡罗工具

本研究提出了一种蒙特卡罗模拟工具,用于模拟稀有液体中热电子的传输过程,特别关注液氩和液氙。该研究旨在阐明时间投影室(TPC)背景下控制电子漂移和扩散的微观机制,并详细考虑相干电子原子散射和电场力。该仿真工具在Geant4框架中实现,可以探索电子输运参数,包括漂移速度、纵向扩散系数和横向扩散系数。通过将漂移速度和扩散系数的结果与实验测量结果进行比较来验证模拟,揭示了低至中等电场范围内的合理一致性。讨论了模拟和实验测量之间的差异,强调了增强横截面计算和高精度采样的必要性。尽管存在某些限制,该模拟工具仍为惰性液体中的电子传输提供了宝贵的见解,为未来在各个研究领域的增强和应用奠定了基础
