Abstract
The transition probability and Stark profile of H α are the standards for a new method of absolute intensity calibration. This new method utilizes the interaction between the radiation from a fast flash lamp and hydrogen atoms in a thermal shock tube plasma. Although it is not essential for purposes of intensity calibration, the data can be used to measure the temperature of the shock tube plasma. The optical path used for the calibration is the same as that which is subsequently used to collect spectroscopic data. The general technique is applicable to any spectral region.
