Abstract

The time-resolved emission spectra from high-voltage pulsed discharges in liquid helium below 4.2 K, 1 atm, and cryogenic helium gas near 4.2 K, 1 atm, have been measured in the visible spectral range. In addition to the well known atomic lines, which exhibit strong and broadened profiles with continua at an early stage, some strong spectral features are observed near 23300 cm-1 ( ∼430 nm) and 25300 cm-1 ( ∼395 nm). The former can be assigned to He 2 transition ( g3Σg +– a3Σu +), and the latter is not observed in previously reported works. These features disappear in 77 K and 300 K, 1 atm, He gas under the same experimental conditions.
