Abstract

Quantitative spectroscopic experiments in shock tubes such as f-number measurements [for example <i>(1)</i>] require an absolute calibration of the optical system, monochromator, and detector. This is very often done for ultraviolet transitions around 3000-3500A with a tungsten strip filament lamp for which emissivities are known <i>(2).</i>
