Abstract
The application of the shock tube to transition probability measurements is discussed, with particular attention to determination of the thermodynamic state of the radiating gas. Specific examples from earlier work on the spectrum of neutral chromium and from current measurements for light atoms clarify the need for redundant temperature determinations and illustrate the value of a new technique of data analysis which circumvents the sensitive dependence of level populations on temperature.Keywords
