EQUIPMENT FOR MEASURING THE LIGHT EMISSION DISINTEGRATING IN GASEOUS PLASMAS
Abstract
The study of the time dependence of the intensity of spectral lines emitted during the disintegration period of a pulsed discharge is considered to be of importance for the interpretation of phenomena occurring during the afterglow period. A survey is given of the various collision processs which could lead to the emission of light during the afterglow periodAND THE EQUIPMENT USED FOR THIS TYPE OF STUDIES IS DESCRIBED. Preliminary measurements carried out on afterglows in helium show that the spectral line intensit range which can be measured is at least 10 to the 4th power:1, for the most dominant spectral lines.
