Abstract

The opportunity of populating of Hg and N₂ levels due to ion-ion recombination is considered. Spectra of a luminescence of mixtures ³He + N₂ + NF₃ (CCl₄) are investigated on nuclear reactor installation. It was supposed, that populating of N₂ (C³Π_u) in processes: N₂ ⁺ + F^- (Cl^-) + M → N₂ (C³Π_u) + F (Cl) + M, will lead to increase of the intensity of the second positive system of nitrogen. However measurements have shown that molecular bands of nitrogen don't amplify at addition of electro-negative gases. Spectra of luminescence of mixtures He + Hg + O₂ (CO₂) are investigated on installation with excitation by α-particles of ²¹⁰Po. It was supposed, that in processes of recombination: Hg⁺ + O^- + M→ Hg* + O + M Hg⁺ + O₂ ^- + M→ Hg ** + O₂ + M will be populated 7³S₁ and probably 6D levels of Hg. The observed increase in intensity of triplet lines of mercury at addition of CO₂ to a mixture ³He + Hg, apparently, is connected with recombination of ions Hg⁺ and O^-.
