Abstract
The use of a DC discharge (Wood's) tube as a dense, localised source of hydrogen atoms (80% dissociation) with long-term stability and reliability is described. The application of the source to experiments requiring long counting times is illustrated by results from recent coincidence experiments on electron-impact ionisation and excitation.Keywords
