Journal of Applied Spectroscopy Aims and scope

Abstract

The spectral distribution of the radiated energy of an imploded plasma formed through the collision of a super-sonic plasma jet of a pulse discharge against a stationary obstacle was studied. Its brightness temperature and absorption were measured. It is shown that the plasma can served as a source of a continuous spectrum with an energy distribution similar to that of an absolute blackbody. The brightness temperature of the source was variable over a broad range by appropriate adjustment of the discharge conditions.
