Polarization and Direction of Propagation of Successive Quanta

Donald R. Hamilton

The correlation between the direction of propagation of one quantum and the polarization of another quantum, when the two are emitted successively (in any order) by a radiating system, is investigated theoretically. This direction-polarization correlation is found to be capable of determining the relative parities of all three levels of the radiating system. The correlation is simply related to the already investigated correlation between the directions of propagation of two successive quanta. Results are given explicitly for the possible combinations of dipole and quadrupole radiation. The discussion applies also to certain types of resonance radiation.

The Resonance Radiation Induced by Elliptically Polarized Light.

Donald R. Hamilton

The angular distribution and polarization of the resonance radiation are deduced for elliptically polar- ized light incident on an atomic system of arbitrary initial and intermediate total angular momenta. The incident and re-radiated light are characterized by Stokes's representation, which allows an immediate generalization to partially polarized incident radiation. The results follow closely in form those deduced for free electron (Rayleigh) scattering but give, in general, a rather smaller degree of anisotropy for the resonance radiation. The results also determine the complete correlation, in polarization and direction of propagation, of two successive quanta emitted by a radiating system
