| Abstract: | The paper is concerned with substantiating a high metrological “quality” of the cathode section of a stationary electric arc
in plasma generators which have a current density of over 2 kA/cm2, a diverging anode channel, and vortex stabilization. An automated spectroscopic system and a system for fast visualization
of plasma filament are used to demonstrate the high reproducibility and stability of the electrical parameters of the arc
and of the space and time radiating characteristics of highly ionized plasma of the cathode region of the discharge. The results
of analysis of the thermodynamic state of plasma in the cathode region of the discharge point to the validity of the conditions
of partial local thermodynamic equilibrium in this region. The use of the developed system of automatic acquisition and processing
of spectroscopic information enables one to obtain unique (as regards the scope and accuracy) data on the radiating characteristics
of lines of atoms and ions of different multiplicity. |
