Abstract
In this work, we present the results of two-wavelength (2λ)-CARS thermometry of hydrogen at temperatures from 300–1200 K. The choice of the pair of spectral lines for the 2λ-CARS thermometer with respect to optimal temperature sensitivity within a given temperature range was analysed. Software was developed to process the experimental data and calculate the temperature. In the experiments, temperature and density were measured in a heated cell using single-shot and averaged CARS intensities in the pure rotationalS branch. The accuracy achieved and its dependence on measured temperature values and on the number of averaged shots was analysed.
