//! Class IonGasTransport implements Stockmayer-(n,6,4) model for transport of ions.
/*!
 * As implemented here, only binary transport between neutrals and ions is considered
 * for calculating mixture-average diffusion coefficients and mobilities. When
 * polarizability is not provide for an ion, LJ model is used instead of n64 model.
 * Only neutral species are considered for thermal conductivity and viscosity.
 *
 * References for Stockmayer-(n,6,4) model: Selle and Riedel @cite selle1999,
 * @cite selle2000; Han et al. @cite han2015; Chiflikian @cite chiflikian1995; and
 * Viehland et al. @cite viehland1975.
 *
 * Stockmayer-(n,6,4) model is not suitable for collision between O2/O2-
 * due to resonant charge transfer. Therefore, an experimental collision
 * data is used instead.
 *
 * Data taken from @cite prager2005.
