Abstract: | Electron densities in an atmospheric helium arc plasma have been measured with the Stark broadening parameters of helium spectral
lines. The spatially distributed radiation intensities are converted to plasma emission coefficients at every wavelength by
means of Abel inversion. From the inverted profiles of He I lines of 4713 ?, 5016 ?, and 6678 ? electron density has been
calculated, which ranges from 0.5 ×1016 to 4 ×1016 cm-3 for a helium arc with current 200 A. Stark widths of He I lines of 3889 ? and 7065 ? are determined based on the measurements
and compared with existing data. |
