Study of Luminescene in Noble Gases and Their Binary Mixtures Excited by the Products of 6Li(n,α)T Nuclear Reaction

Abstract

Direct conversion of nuclear particles’ energy into optical radiation opens up new opportunities in obtaining a large amount of light energy, including its most perfect form - coherent light [1-2]. Moreover, optical radiation study of a nuclear-excited plasma produced by products of nuclear reactions is of interest for: development of an alternative method of energy output from a nuclear reactor [3]; creation of devices to control and regulation of nuclear reactors’ parameters, creation one of the diagnostics of high-temperature plasma in fusion reactors [4]. Therefore, spectral studies of nuclear-excited plasma are relevant and are of interest for solving problems, associated with gas media selection with high efficiency of nuclear reaction energy conversion into optical radiation.
