چکیده
Experimental results are presented from an experiment in which ionization created by a highenergy x-ray synchrotron radiation beam intersecting an ethylene diffusion flame is measured.The ionization signal is believed to arise from x-ray absorption by aggregated soot particles.Comparisons are made between these ionization profiles and those due to natural flameionization. Visible light absorption measurements were also performed to determine the sootvolume fraction in the beam and the results compared with the x-ray induced signals.
