Abstract In order to measure the thermodynamic properties(ne,Te) of metal plasma during electrical wire explosions in the water, Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES) system has been considered. Due to its high density and pressure of surrounding water, the line analysis, such as line-pair or broadening, was failed and black body (BB) radiation-like distribution was measured in the nanosecond time scale wire explosion in the water[1]. In this presentation, we measured emission spectra within visible range (340~700nm) emitted from the underwater electrical explosion of 40mm-long Al wires. The time integrated emission spectra was obtained using wide range spectrometer and time resolved light intensities of the sampled spectrum using photomultiplier tube (PMT). Since the formation of plasma channel followed by current re-striking leads to significant deviation from the BB distribution, the BB fitting method results in relatively large error in deducing Te from such discharges. As an alternative method of deducing Te, one can estimate the radiation power from the discharge channel. The latter method requires the time evolution of the radius of discharging channel, the experimental measurement of that should be realized in close future. [1] A. Grinenko, Phys.

IV. Conclusion Time integrated emission spectra
Even in the case of single current pulse, severe deviation from the BB curve is observed Light emitted after the termination of electrical current is so strong that the accumulated spectrum cannot be used to deduce the plasma property during the wire explosion Time resolved light intensities of sampled spectrum Time evolution of light intensities are measured at each sampled wavelength Plasma channel formation followed by electrical breakdown is combined with the exothermic reaction, the radiation distributions from explosion of thin wire significantly deviated from BB radiation Two methods deducing temperature by using Planck’s equation Although 1st method is easily applicable without any optical calibration, an attempt to fit the full range of the sampled spectrum becomes inaccurate Since 2nd method requires the radius of discharging channel, it should be obtained via simulation or the shadow imaging : Both methods should be realized to cross check their accuracy

V. Future work Radiation emission from different wire materials (e.g. Cu or W) Exothermic reaction of Al in high temperature makes the measured spectrum deviates from the BB radiation : similar measurement should be repeated to verify this effects Design of polychromator using interference filters within visible range Strong light intensity eases the concerns related to the electrical noise in the signal Measurement of the discharging channel radius as well as the shock front location Combining with the analysis based on the Planck’s equation, further estimation of plasma density can be possible not only the temperature estimation
