Atomic level population densities in decaying overcooled helium plasmas

  • 1. AN SSSR, Moscow

Description

Qualitative features of helium atomic level population in plasmas far from equilibrium are discussed. The excited level population densities of helium atoms are calculated in 'stationary flow' approximation for electron temperatures 0.1-0.4 eV and electron densities 1014-1016cm-3, assuming the ionization degree more than 0.001. The conditions of inverse population are investigated both for pure helium plasmas and for mixtures of helium with other gases. (Auth.)
