Stark broadening and shift measurements were performed on ionized helium resonance lines from a fully ionized helium plasma in a low-inductance electromagnetic T tube. Both time-integrated photographic and time-resolved photoelectric measurements of the lines were performed with a grazing incidence spectrometer. Electron density and temperature were determined from the widths of the He II 4686-A and the He I 5876-A lines and the He II 4686-A line to continuum ratio, respectively. It was found that all ionized helium resonance lines were emitted optically thick by a homogeneous plasma slab and self-reversed by a thin cooler boundary layer. Marked blue shifts of 0.07 plus or minus 0.05 A which may be due to plasma polarization were noted.
