ABSTRACTEmission spectra from 1200 Å to 3500 Å have been measured for laser-generated plasmas produced by the focused output (1−4 J/cm2)of a Kr-F excimer.laser onto solid targets of single and multicomponent materials (e.g., Al, Y2O3, BaO, Cu, and YBa2Cu3O7−δ). We have measured the spatial distribution and fluence dependence of the plasma emission. The emission spectra indicated that very large density gradients from the large opacity at the target surface were present. In general, the spectra were dominated by excited neutrals and singly and doubly ionized species. Plasma emission spectra from Al have been analyzed in more detail to derive plasma temperature and density. A plasma temperature of 2 eV and an electronic density of ∼1018/cm3 at 2 J/cm2 was estimated from the relative line intensities. Spatial variation of the total vacuum ultraviolet emission provided evidence for laser absorptionin the ablated material.

Calculations show that high-excitation planetaries emit about the same total intensity of collisionally excited radiation in the unobserved ultraviolet part of the spectrum as in the visible. This ultraviolet radiation emanates from a central zone where the electron temperature is high due to absorption of He II Ly-α photons. Intensities of lines which one might expect to detect in the ultraviolet have been calculated using revised atomic data and a detailed model of the ionization and thermal structure of the central zone. Relative line intensities are presented for a wide range of excitation in the nebula. In particular, the absolute intensity of the C IV doublet at 1550 Å has been calculated for 4 selected planetaries.

The chromospheres and transition zones of the fast rotating giants of the FK Comae type can be studied by analysing their ultraviolet emission line spectra. From relative line intensities, electron densities of the order of 1010to 1011cm−1 are found for the region where the Si IV emission arises. The sizes of the chromospheres and transition regions can be inferred from the emission measure distribution, and a temperature-height relation can be found on the assumption that hydrostatic equilibrium holds. We find the atmospheres of these stars to be clearly more extended than those of normal giant stars, and the flux in the higher excitation chromospheric and transition zone lines (e.g. C II, C IV, Si IV) is significantly stronger than in other stars of similar spectral type. Indeed, the location of these stars in the standard rotation-activity-correlation diagrams places them close to or even above the saturation limit for main sequence stars.

The holmium plasma induced by a 1064-nmQ-switched Nd:YAG laser in air was investigated. This work was done theoretically and experimentally.  Cowan code was used to get the emission spectra for different transition of the holmium target. In the experimental work, the evolution of the plasma was studied by acquiring spectral images at different laser pulse energies (600,650,700, 750, and 800 mJ). The repetition rates of (1Hz and 10Hz) in the UV region (200-400 nm). The results indicate that, the emission line intensities increase with increasing of the laser pulse energy and repetition rate. The strongest emission spectra appeared when the laser pulse energy is 800mJ and 10 Hz repetition rate at λ= 345.64nm, with the maximum intensity of 77000 counts.
