Abstract
- The equipment and method for measuring the plasma flow velocity of a quasi-stationary high-current plasma accelerator (QSPA) based on high-speed Doppler shift spectroscopy are described. Time sampling of measurements can reach 100 kHz, which makes it possible to study in detail processes lasting about 1 ms or more. The correspondence between the flow velocity values obtained by Doppler shift spectroscopy and the time-of-flight method has been demonstrated. The results of measurements are presented, showing that the velocities of the QSPA plasma flow lie in the range of 30–160 km/s, depending on the energy input into the discharge and the composition of the working gas.
