The spectral radiance of a deuterium lamp has been calibrated by the radiation of an electron synchrotron and by the continuum radiation of a high temperature hydrogen arc. The two measurements allow an indirect comparison of the two radiometric standards in the spectral range from 175 to 340 nm. They agree with each other within less than ± 5%.
