Abstract
Consideration is given to the analysis of data on the cross sections of elastic and inelastic col-lisions of electrons with noble gas atoms. The transport (diffusion) cross section, the excita-tion and ionization cross sections are studied. For the selected sets of experimental and theo-retical data, optimal analytical formulas are found and approximation coefficients are select-ed for them. The obtained semi-empirical formulas allow us to reproduce the cross section values in a wide range of collision energies from 0.001 to 10000 eV with an accuracy of sev-eral percent.
