Collisional Depolarization in the Excited State

  • Chapter
Progress in Atomic Spectroscopy

Part of the book series: Physics of Atoms and Molecules ((PAMO))

Abstract

The field of collisional depolarization in excited states has reached a plateau of maturity: the basic experimental results and their theoretical explanation have been well-established. For example, it is known that in the first excited states of the heavier alkalis, disorientation in the P½ state is considerably slower than in the P 3/2 state, and further that the P½ disorientation rate tends to be smaller when the fine-structure splitting is larger. This is now understood as the result of time-reversal symmetry, which requires the P½ disorientation to proceed by virtual transitions to another (the P 3/2) state. In addition, full quantal calculations, performed with realistic potentials, give quantitatively good agreement with measurements obtained, leaving little doubt that depolarization phenomena are fundamentally understood.
