Abstract :
Summary form only given, as follows. Barium has a number of characteristics that indicate it may be a good atomic radiator in a glow discharge. Thus, a Ba glow discharge may prove to be of interest to the lighting industry for use in a novel, efficient light source. Progress in experimental determinations of the radiometric efficiency of a barium DC glow discharge under a variety of conditions will be reported.
