Energy Transfer and Excimer Formation in a Flowing Afterglow of Mg Metastables.

摘要

Mg atoms were vaporized into a flast flowing Ar carrier stream and then excited by an ac discharge. Downstream of the discharge in the afterglow region metastable Mg(3P) atoms were reacted with vaporized metals. The resultant chemiluminescence consisted of metal atom resonance lines and continuous emission bands of the molecule KMg. (Author)
