Luminescence spectra of XeF2 excited by radiation from the excimers Xe*2 and Kr*2

An investigation was made of the dependences of the intensity of the luminescence due to electronic–vibrational transitions in XeF* molecules in the ultraviolet spectral region on the pressures of different buffer gases. When XeF₂ was photolyzed by excimer radiation in the presence of xenon, luminescence of the triatomic molecule Xe₂F* was detected. The dependence of its power on the pressures of N₂, Kr, Xe, and Ar was investigated.
