Abstract

Absolute intensity of continuum from the BRV source is estimated in the 30–60-nm spectral range. The detector is an ion chamber filled with argon, and the window is an evaporated film of aluminum. The values of the radiated power show that this simple and inexpensive vacuum uv source can be compared with synchrotron radiation for a number of applications.
