Line Profile of H Lyman-Beta Emission from Dissociative Excitation of H2

A high-resolution ultraviolet spectrometer was employed for a measurement of the H Lyman-Beta(H L(sub Beta)) emission Doppler line profile at 1025.7 A from dissociative excitation of H2 by electron impact. Analysis of the deconvolved line profile reveals the existence of a narrow central peak, less than 30 mA full width at half maximum (FWHM), and a broad pedestal base about 260 mA FWHM. Analysis of the red wing of the line profile is complicated by a group of Wemer and Lyman rotational lines 160-220 mA from the line center. Analysis of the blue wing of the line profile gives the kinetic-energy distribution. There are two main kinetic-energy components to the H(3p) distribution: (1) a slow distribution with a peak value near 0 eV from singly excited states, and (2) a fast distribution with a peak contribution near 7 eV from doubly excited states. Using two different techniques, the absolute cross section of H L(sub Beta)p is found to be 3.2+/-.8 x 10(exp -19)sq cm at 100-eV electron impact energy. The experimental cross-section and line-profile results can be compared to previous studies of H(alpha) (6563.7 A) for principal quantum number n=3 and L(sub alpha)(1215.7 A) for n=2.
