Characteristics of the optical radiation from Kaufman thrusters
The optical radiation from plasma discharges of electron-bombardment mercury-ion thrusters was investigated. Spectrographic measurements indicated that the discharge was composed primarily of mercury atoms and singly charged ions. Excitation spectra of doubly charged mercury ions was measured to obtain the fraction of such ions in the discharge. Accomplishments of spectroscopic measurements of a hollow cathode thruster included the identification of two diagnostic lines in the mercury spectrum and the interpretation of the spectral amplitudes in terms of a superposition of primary and Maxwellian electron distributions. Potential application of optical techniques to thruster control applications was also suggested by the measurements.

Heating and cooling of the thermal X-ray plasma in solar flares
Characteristic times for the heating and cooling of thermal plasma in X-ray flares are estimated from the time profile of the flare and from the temperature, emission measure and length scale of the flare-heated plasma. It is implied from the empirical values for the characteristic times that flares are produced by magnetic field reconnection; that conductive cooling of the plasma dominates radiative cooling; and that reconnection heating and conductive cooling are approximately in balance at thermal X-ray maximum.

Soft X-ray spectrum of a hot plasma
The spectrum of radiation emitted by a hot optically thin plasma with abundances and equilibrium ionization balance appropriate to interstellar conditions has been calculated. The results at wavelengths shorter than 200 A are discussed for material in the electron-temperature range from 160,000 to 100 million K.
