THE EMISSION SPECTRA BEHIND IONIZING SHOCK WAVES IN HYDROGEN

Abstract

The time-integrated emission spectra of a H pla ma at a temperature of the order of 10 ev, obtained in an electromagnetic shock tube, and of impurities, primarily from the windows through which the spectrographic measurements were made, are presented. The majority of these lines will e observed in any shock tube used to generate highly ionized gases where observation windows are in contact with such a gas. (Author)
