Abstract
A method has been developed to measure vibrational and rotational static temperatures at any point in nonradiating low‐density flows of nitrogen. An electron beam is used to excite emission in the first negative system of nitrogen. The relative intensities in the rotational and vibrational structure of the emission spectra are predicted theoretically. The theoretical predictions are used to obtain rotational and vibrational temperatures of the nitrogen through which the beam passes.Keywords
