摘要: Resonance absorption of narrow-bandwidth coherent vacuum UV radiation is applied to hydrogen and deuterium plasmas in a magnetic multipole source determine populations rovibronic levels the electronic molecular ground state as well atomic densities temperatures. Variations are investigated function discharge parameters two different regions plasma source: central region close wall. A strong dependence density on pressure current observed considerable difference between values edge regions. The differences discharges small. - determined only do not exhibit significant for (v = 2 5 v 3 6 ) distributions Boltzmann. Molecular translation temperatures room temperature good agreement with rotational from population first four states six deuterium. fraction cold atoms present exhibits similar temperature.
