In this work we show results of Monte Carlo modeling of electrons and heavy particles induced spatially resolved emission intensity or the Doppler profile in pure H2 discharge focusing on anode boundary. In particular we present study of fast H2 and fast H particles, scattered both at the surface and of the molecules. Since the anode boundary is characterized by a large electron flux, role of electron reflection and production of secondary electrons at the anode surface is part of the complete picture of spatial emission profile. In this work we verify our models of electron backscattering from the anode including both the reflection and the secondary electron production by making comparisons with the drift tube experiments. In order to achieve consistency with our previous results we select conditions of simulation appropriate for very high E/N (E-electric field, N-gas density) that are selected from experimental Townsend discharges in pure H2.
