Abstract

The transport of hydrogen atoms and molecules has been investigated using the two-photon absorption laser induced fluorescence and Rayleigh scattering techniques. The results show that radicals can easily escape the plasma jet under the right circumstances. This has to be taken into account when the chemical potential of the plasma is needed. In the shock wave the flow is not in local thermodynamic equilibrium. This is a direct consequence of the transfer of a supersonic flow into a subsonic flow
