Measurement of hyperfine structure of sodium 3P 1/2,3/2 states using optical spectroscopy

Abstract: Abstract. The hyperfine levels of the sodium 3P1/2,3/2 states were resolved using a narrow linewidth laser to excite the ground state. The laser frequency was scanned while fluorescence resulting from the radiative decay of the excited state was detected. The frequency was calibrated using the known hyperfine splitting of the ground state. The magnetic dipole A and electric quadrupole B hyperfine coupling constants of the excited states were determined to be A3e, 2=94.44+0.13, A3p~2=18.62+ 0.21 and B3e~/ =2.11… Show more

“…Note that the crossover resonance is only 29 MHz away, which is not very far given that the experimentally obtained linewidth in SAS is around 10 MHz. The result for the interval from these measurements was 57.723 (15) MHz. The slightly large error is due to the nearby crossover resonance which causes some peak pulling.…”

“…Results of our calculations of magnetic-dipole hyperfine constants A (MHz) for ns, np 1/2 and np 3/2 states in Na, K, Rb and Cs are given in Table XII together with experimental values from [33][34][35][36][37]. The nuclear magnetic moments used in the calculations are weighted averages of values taken from the tabulation by Raghavan [38]; they are listed in Table XIII.…”
