Table 1: Various discharge conditions: C-bank capacity (in $\mu$ F), U-bank voltage (in kV), H-plasma length (in cm), $\Phi$ -tube diameter (in mm), P-filling pressure (in Pa). $N^{\rm exp}$ (in 10 $^{\rm 22}$ m $^{\rm -3}$ ) and $T^{\rm exp}$ (in 10 $^{\rm 3}$ K) denote experimental electron density and temperature, respectively obtained at a moment when the line profiles were analyzed. $N^{\rm D}$ (in 10 $^{\rm 22}$ m $^{\rm -3}$ ) and $T^{\rm D}$ (in 10 $^{\rm 3}$ K) represent averaged electron density and averaged electron temperature obtained by using our line deconvolution procedure (Milosavljevic & Poparic 2001).
Table 2: The Ar I line broadening characteristics. Measured: total Stark FWHM ( $W_{\rm t}^{\rm exp}$ in pm within $\pm$ 12% accuracy), electron Stark width ( $W_{\rm e}^{\rm exp}$ in pm within $\pm$ 12% accuracy), ion Stark width ( $W_{\rm i}^{\rm exp}$ in pm within $\pm$ 12% accuracy), static ion broadening parameter ( $A^{\rm exp}$ , dimensionless within $\pm$ 15% accuracy) and ion-dynamic coefficient ( $D^{\rm exp}$ , dimensionless within $\pm$ 20% accuracy) at measured electron temperature ( $T^{\rm exp}$ in 10 $^{\rm 3}$ K) and electron density ( $N^{\rm exp}$ in 10 $^{\rm 22}$ m $^{\rm -3}$ ).
