Abstract

A silicon photodiode, was used to measure the power emitted by a vacuum arc in the ultraviolet and visible spectral regions. The measurements were carried out with the high-current vacuum arc stabilized by an axial magnetic field in regimes with developed anode activity. The power of radiation coming out of the arc through the side surface was measured. The results show that when analyzing the energy balance of a high-current vacuum arc, radiation must be taken into account.
