8 pags., 11 figs. ; We present a set of self-consistent cross sections for electron transport in gaseous tetrahydrofuran (THF), that refines the set published in our previous study [1] by proposing modifications to the quasielastic momentum transfer, neutral dissociation, ionisation and electron attachment cross sections. These adjustments are made through the analysis of pulsed-Townsend swarm transport coefficients, for electron transport in pure THF and in mixtures of THF with argon. To automate this analysis, we employ a neural network model that is trained to solve this inverse swarm problem for realistic cross sections from the LXCat project. The accuracy, completeness and self-consistency of the proposed refined THF cross section set is assessed by comparing the analyzed swarm transport coefficient measurements to those simulated via the numerical solution of Boltzmann’s equation. ; The authors gratefully acknowledge the financial support of the Australian Research Council through the Discovery Projects Scheme (Grant #DP180101655).
