“…If we assume that all atoms travel at the same velocity 0, then (3a) reduces to where we used T = T2 -T,. This is the correct expression to use if the atomic beam is velocity selected (Schuda and Stroud 1973).…”

Abstract. Analytic expressions are obtained for the spectrum of the light scattered when a collimated atomic beam is illuminated at right angles to its path by a cw monochromatic laser beam tuned to resonance with a two-level transition. The spectra. as would be determined by a Fabry-Perot interferometer, vary depending on the portion of the interaction region from which the scattered light emanates. The spectrum of the light from a finite sub-region of the interaction volume is described as a function of the location and length of the sub-region, and of the intensity and frequency of the laser. Several interesting features related to the turn-on of the interaction as well as to the finite observation interval are found.

Dual-frequency optical pumping for spin-polarizing a lithium atomic beam

Abstract. A lithium-6 atomic beam is spin-polarized by means of optical pumping with a single-mode dye laser operating on the resonance transition. Simultaneous pumping of both hyperfine substates is achieved by frequency-splitting the laser light with an acousto-optic modulator. A polarization dependent signal, obtained by probing the optical activity of the beam with linearly polarized light, is utilized in a microprocessor-controlled laser stabilization scheme. The polarization is analyzed with a sextupole magnet and its overall value is 0.70 for an intensity of 1 x 1014 atoms s-1. By reversing the sense of circular polarization of the pumping light the atomic beam polarization is easily reversed in direction. PACS: 32.90+a, 35.80+s
