“…Differences between theory and experiment are large in some cases, but so are the uncertainties of many of the experimental values. However, the RLCCSDT results were found in good agreement with more recent experiments [222,223,225]. The RLCCSDT calculation [177] provided critically evaluated recommended values for a large number of Cs polarizabilities for which accurate experimental data are not available.…”

Atomic polarization phenomena impinge upon a number of areas and processes in physics. The dielectric constant and refractive index of any gas are examples of macroscopic properties that are largely determined by the dipole polarizability. When it comes to microscopic phenomena, the existence of alkaline-earth anions and the recently discovered ability of positrons to bind to many atoms are predominantly due to the polarization interaction. An imperfect knowledge of atomic polarizabilities is presently looming as the largest source of uncertainty in the new generation of optical frequency standards. Accurate polarizabilities for the group I and II atoms and ions of the periodic table have recently become available by a variety of techniques. These include refined many-body perturbation theory and coupled-cluster calculations sometimes combined with precise experimental data for selected transitions, microwave spectroscopy of Rydberg atoms and ions, refractive index measurements in microwave cavities, ab initio calculations of atomic structures using explicitly correlated wave functions, interferometry with atom beams, and velocity changes of laser cooled atoms induced by an electric field. This review examines existing theoretical methods of determining atomic and ionic polarizabilities, and discusses their relevance to various applications with particular emphasis on cold-atom physics and the metrology of atomic frequency standards.

“…4. Since the tensor polarizability α 2 for the 10D 3/2 state was known far better than for the other states [10], we used the data in Fig. 4 to calibrate the voltage.…”

“…Both methods made it possible to determine a large number of excited S and D state scalar and tensor polarizabilities of Rb and Cs, achieving an accuracy of some 5% (see [9] for a review). The use of electro-optically modulated laser radiation allowed Xia and co-authors [10] to measure the scalar and tensor polarizabilities of (10 − 13)D 3/2,5/2 states of Cs with an accuracy better than 0.3%, which is better than for any other atomic state. Thus, to our knowledge there has been no experimental observation of purely electric field level-crossing resonances of m F hfs levels at two-step, or any multi-step, laser excitation.…”

“…The 7D 3/2 state was of particular interest because of a considerable discrepancy between the only known measured value for the polarizability α 2 [12] and its theoretical estimate given in [13]. At the same time, the α 2 value for the 10D 3/2 Cs state was measured with unprecedented accuracy of 0.1% [10] and remarkably agreed, within 0.25%, with its calculated counterpart in [13]. As a result, we used the signal from the 10D 3/2 state to calibrate the electric field produced in our Cs cell.…”

The pure electric field level-crossing of mF Zeeman sublevels of hyperfine F levels at two-step laser excitation was described theoretically and studied experimentally for the nD 3/2 states in Cs with n = 7, 9 and 10, by applying a diode laser in the first 6S 1/2 → 6P 3/2 step and a diode or dye laser for the second 6P 3/2 → nD 3/2 step. Level-crossing resonance signals were observed in the nD 3/2 → 6P 1/2 fluorescence. A theoretical model was developed to describe quantitatively the resonance signals by correlation analysis of the optical Bloch equations in the case when an atom simultaneously interacts with two laser fields in the presence of an external dc electric field. The simulations described well the experimental signals. The tensor polarizabilities α2 (in a 3 0 ) were determined to be 7.45(20) × 10 4 for the 7D 3/2 state and 1.183(35) × 10 6 for the 9D 3/2 state; a well established α2 value for 10D 3/2 was used to calibrate the electric field. The α2 value for the 7D 3/2 state differed by ca. 15% from the existing experimentally measured value.

“…In 2010, Mitroy et al [11] reviewed the theory and applications of atomic and ionic polarizabilities across the periodic table of the elements. The static and dynamic polarizabilities of Cs have increased in interest recently, as demonstrated by a number of experimental [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29] and theoretical [11,[30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49] studies.…”

Motivated by recent interest in their applications, we report a systematic study of Cs atomic properties calculated by a high-precision relativistic all-order method. Excitation energies, reduced matrix elements, transition rates, and lifetimes are determined for levels with principal quantum numbers n ≤ 12 and orbital angular momentum quantum numbers l ≤ 3. Recommended values and estimates of uncertainties are provided for a number of electric-dipole transitions and the electric dipole polarizabilities of the ns, np, and nd states. We also report a calculation of the electric quadrupole polarizability of the ground state. We display the dynamic polarizabilities of the 6s and 7p states for optical wavelengths between 1160 nm and 1800 nm and identify corresponding magic wavelengths for the 6s − 7p 1/2 , 6s − 7p 3/2 transitions. The values of relevant matrix elements needed for polarizability calculations at other wavelengths are provided. arXiv:1605.05210v1 [physics.atom-ph]
