Deuterium lamp as a UV continuum source from 160 nm to 320 nm for space applications.
The deuterium gas discharge lamp is a continuum radiation source for the 160-320 nm wavelength range. A special model has been developed to meet space requirements. The lamps under investigation withstood heavy shock and vibration, were operated in a vacuum, and their radiant output was monitored in a zero gravity environment. No changes in their characteristics were found.
