Spatially resolved measurements of the electron d. and temp. in an atm. Ar plasma jet used for plasma spraying were carried out. The electron d. was detd. from Hb broadening. The electron temp. was obtained both from line-to-continuum ratios and from the electron d., assuming local thermodn. equil. population. Also, particle velocities in the axial direction of the plasma jet were measured with a laser doppler anemometer. [on SciFinder (R)
