Hanle effect in spectrally broadened light

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We have studied the Hanle effect both experimentally and theoretically for the case where the exciting light has a large range of Intensities and varying spectral width. A description of near- resonant light scattering from a beam of finite spectral width is usually based on the solution of the steady-state Liouville equation dp/dt = 0 of the atomic density matrix in the light field. Of course, the main problem is how to characterize the laser spectral width.
