ABSTRACT

The analysis of Stark broadened spectral line profiles in a plasma is one of the most useful techniques for plasma diagnostics specially for the determination of the electron density and temperature in the range for electron densities between 10'9 and 102' m-3 and temperatures between 1000 and 300000 K [1]. This diagnostics are carried out, usually, comparing the experimental measurements with tabulated results of confirmed theoretical models [2,3].
