Spontaneous and induced emission of XeCl* excimer molecules under pumping of Xe - CCl4 and Ar - Xe - CCl4 gas mixtures with a low CCl4 content by fast electrons and uranium fission fragments. Quantum Electronics Volume 43, Issue 11, 2013, Pages 1003-1008

The spontaneous and induced emission of XeCl* excimer molecules upon excitation of Xe - CCl4 and Ar - Xe - CCl4 gas mixtures with a low CCl4 content by high-energy charged particles [a pulsed high-energy electron beam and products of neutron nuclear reaction 235U(n, f)] has been experimentally studied. The electron energy was 150 keV, and the pump current pulse duration and amplitude were 5 ns and 5 A, respectively. The energy of fission fragments did not exceed 100 MeV, the duration of the neutron pump pulse was 200 μs, and the specific power contribution to the gas was about 300 W cm-3.
