De-excitation probability of hydrogen atoms excited by reflection from a beryllium surface
- 1. Nagoya Univ. (Japan). Inst. of Plasma Physics
Description
Light emission through the collision of H+, H2+ and H3+ ions incident on a beryllium surface is studied. Lyman-α, Hsub(α), Hsub(#betta#), Hsub(#betta#) and Hsub(delta) lines from excited hydrogen atoms are observed. Relative production yields and de-excitation probabilities of the excited states (n=2,3,4,5 and 6) are obtained. States with a larger quantum number n have a higher probability of de-excitation as an atom leaves the Be surface. (author)
