The Stark parameters, the width (W) and the shift (d), of the neutral argon (Ar I) 425.9 nm spectral line have been studied in a linear, low-pressure, optically thin pulsed arc discharge. The line shapes are measured in three different plasmas at about 16,000 K electron temperature (T) and about 7.0×1022 m−3 electron density (N). The separate electron and ion contributions to the total Stark width (Wt), i.e. We and Wi, as well as to the total Stark shift (dt), i.e. …
