Theory of optical pumping of atoms by an elliptically polarized field

А. В. Тайченачев, Anatolii M Tumaikin, Valeriy I. Yudin

In the present paper we fully analytically solve the problem on optical pumping of atoms by a monochromatic elliptically polarized radiation with taking into account the radiative relaxation of the excited state. It is shown that all dipole- allowed transitions can be divided into four classes with respect to the steady-state solution structure and its physical manifestations. Possible applications of the obtained solution are discussed.

Evolution of an optically pumped ensemble of cold ground-state atoms in weak light fields

A. V. Bezverbnyĭ

The evolution of multipole moments is analyzed for optically pumped cold ground-state atoms in the limit of low saturation of a closed j 0 → j 1 dipole transition. The longest multipole-moment relaxation times are analyzed as functions of ellipticity and frequency detuning from resonance for transitions with j 0 ≲ 5. The qualitative difference between the evolution toward steady-state Zeeman sublevel populations and dynamics of transient spontaneous emission is demonstrated for transitions of the following types: j → j −1, j → j with integer j , j → j with half-integer j , and j → j + 1.The evolution of multipole moments is analyzed for optically pumped cold ground-state atoms in the limit of low saturation of a closed j 0 → j 1 dipole transition.
