Dual-broadband coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) spectroscopy of
the Q(01)-branch of H-2 has been employed for thermometry in an atmospheri
c-pressure hydrogen-oxygen flame. The aim was to investigate the applicabil
ity of the technique for single-shot temperature evaluation and to analyse
the precision of the measurements. The results are presented of temperature
and relative H2 density mapping of the flame in the temperature range of 7
00-2800 K. The achieved precision of single-shot measurements was 3%-5%.
