Physical Phenomena in Flowing Plasmas and at High Magnetic Fields.

Abstract

Research is described concerning the development and testing of four-pin probes for making time and space resolved electrical conductivity measurements in MHD plasmas. In a second area, the feasibility has been demonstrated of using turnable high-resolution laser spectroscopy for measuring concentrations of infrared active species in combustion gases. The third area describes measurements of the vibrational nonequilibrium in a supersonic expansion of CO.
