Spectroscopic temperature measurement in a applied field MPD

In this paper the temperature of the plasma inside an MPD thruster has been measured with and without applied magnetic field using spectroscopic measurement. The obtained spectra show the presence of C++, C+ and F atoms while the lines relative to C, F+ and F++ are out of scope. Using the measured l...
