Ms. Dimitrijevic et al., STARK-BROADENING OF AL-III AND CU-IV LINES FOR DIAGNOSTIC OF THE RAILGUN ARC PLASMA, Journal of physics. D, Applied physics, 27(2), 1994, pp. 247-252
Stark broadening parameters of Al III lines of interest in the diagnos
tics of an electrodynamic macroparticle accelerator (rail gun) arc pla
sma created by evaporation of an Al foil have been calculated using th
e semi-classical perturbation formalism. Stark widths of Cu IV lines o
f interest for an arc plasma created by Cu foil evaporation have also
been calculated by using the modified semi-empirical method.
