Abstract
The Ar+Xe fluorescence in an intense electron beam excited Ar-Xe mixture has been studied spectrally and temporally. Three emissions have been detected at 329, 345 and 349 nm. Rate coefficients of Ar+ (2P3/2)+Ar+Xe, Ar+(2P3/2)+2Xe, Ar+(2P1/2 or/and 2P3/2)+Xe, radiative lifetime and quenching by argon of Ar+(2P1/2)Xe have been measured. The authors determined the branching ratio of Ar+(2P1/2)+Ar+Xe to Ar+(2P1/2)Xe+Ar by calibration of the 329 nm fluorescence yield measurement. Comparison with other results is made.
