We elaborated two spectroscopic methods for the temperature distribution in axially symmetric source. One method uses the self-reversed spectral line; this method is based on a comparison of the measured absolute maximum (peak) intensity with that calculated as a function of axial temperature. Another method which uses a spectral line without self-reversal, was based on the Kirchhoff's law and exploits two-path absorption technique and Abel transformation. For both methods, knowledge of atomic broadening constants and transition probabilities is not crucial.
