Abstract
Broadening and shift of spectral lines in dense Ba and Sr vapor have been studied below and above their first ionization limits. The latter are well-known autoionizing spectral lines that exhibit many different spectral features. However, at larger pressures of noble gases some previously unobserved or very weak spectral phenomena become visible and their studies might be also linked to energy conversion purposes. Originally, we used nanosecond laser which was scanned in a certain spectral region where the two-photon excitation of autoionization lines occurred. This pulsed laser was overlapped by a mode-locked femtosecond laser and a very sensitive thermionic detection was used to observe autoionizing spectral lines. We also presented our preliminary results with hot strontium vapor excited to the resonance level at 460.7 nm.
