متن کاملHyperfine-interaction- and magnetic-field-induced Bose-Einstein-statistics suppressed two-photon transitions
Two-photon transitions between atomic states of total electronic angular momentum Ja = 0 and Jb = 1 are forbidden when the photons are of the same energy. This selection rule is analogous to the Landau-Yang theorem in particle physics that forbids decays of vector particle into two photons. It arises because it is impossible to construct a total angular momentum J2γ = 1 quantum-mechanical state...
متن کاملSpectroscopic test of bose-einstein statistics for photons.
Using Bose-Einstein-statistics-forbidden two-photon excitation in atomic barium, we have limited the rate of statistics-violating transitions, as a fraction ν of an equivalent statistics-allowed transition rate, to ν<4.0×10{-11} at the 90% confidence level. This is an improvement of more than 3 orders of magnitude over the best previous result. Additionally, hyperfine-interaction enabling of th...
متن کاملStudy of Rb atomic transitions D 1,2 lines in strong magnetic field based on fluorescence spectra of sub-micron thin cell
The so-called “/2-Zeeman technique” (HLZT) for studies of individual optical transition between Zeeman sublevels of atomic hyperfine structure in an external magnetic field of B = 10 – 2500 G is presented. Particularly, implementation of HLZT allows one to realize a direct determination of frequency shift and a strong modification of an optical transition probability between Zeeman components ...
متن کاملForbidden transitions in a magneto-optical trap.
We report the first observation of a nondipole transition in an ultracold atomic vapor. We excite the 3P-4P electric quadrupole (E2) transition in 23Na confined in a magneto-optical trap, and we demonstrate its application to high-resolution spectroscopy by making the first measurement of the hyperfine structure of the 4P(1/2) level and extracting the magnetic dipole constant A=30.6+/-0.1 MHz. ...
