We present optical spectroscopic and magnetic probe observations of a laboratory discharge device, in which magnetic field line reconnexion occurs at an x−type neutral point. Time-resolved spectral-line profiles of the ionized argon line A II λ4348 are presented. These allow the determination of Doppler shifts and broadenings near the neutral point. Plasma heating occurs at the neutral point and downstream from it. Plasma is ejected from the downstream sides of the neutral point region at the local Alfvén speed at all times. This is equal to about one-tenth the upstream Alfvén speed at the one time it is known. The downstream magnetic Mach number or ‘local reconnexion rate’ is found to be nearly independent of the plasma conductivity and time. The rate of transfer of magnetic flux from the upstream to downstream regions is strongly dependent on conductivity and time.

The parameters involved in the spectral monitoring of atmospheric contaminants in the tungsten–helium arc process were studied under welding conditions. An internal standard was necessary because small variations in arc length, current, condition of metal surface, alloy, the portion of the arc in the aperture, etc. resulted in relatively large variations in spectral response, proportionally much greater than for those same parameters in conventional low current–graphite electrode spectroscopy. Only the argon line internal standard was satisfactory. Warping of the work metal caused the arc to change in space, so a side arm mount for the torch was designed to carry the entrance optics. The high and varying background that resulted from electrode reflections, glowing oxide particulate, focus on hot metal, and possible radiation from the electrode tip required the use of a rotating circular wedge to oscillate the emission lines across the exit slits. Alternating current electronics amplified the difference in signal levels.
