RIMI: A Proposal to Upgrade the Research Capability in Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics by the Purchace of a Ring Laser and a RF Spectrum Analyzer

提议的研究将改善佛罗里达国际大学原子、分子和光学实验室的研究基础设施。将购买环形激光系统和无线电频谱分析仪。环形激光系统将为三个实验项目提供连续波、窄线宽、强光子源。亚稳态稀有气体原子的冷却和俘获将用作慢原子源，用于低相对速度下的微分和积分散射截面测量。在解离复合反应的飞行时间研究中，激光辐射将用于原子束偏转。在稀有气体分子离子解离复合反应的测量中，光束偏转将用于状态分离和鉴定。在铷系统中研究无反转激光和光学透明性。两名研究生和两名本科生将参与拟议的工作。＊＊＊

9550652 Hardy The proposed research would improve the research infrastructure in the atomic, molecular, and optical laboratories at Florida International University. A ring laser system and a radio frequency spectrum analyzer will be purchased. The ring laser system will provide a continuous wave, narrow line width, intense source of photons for use in three experimental programs. Cooling and trapping of metastable rare gas atoms will be used for a source of slow atoms for differential and integral scattering cross section measurements at low relative velocities. Laser radiation will be used for atomic beam deflection in time-of-flight studies of the dissociative recombination reaction. Beam deflection will be used for state separation and identification in measurements of the dissociative recombination reaction of the molecular ions of the rare gasses. Lasing without inversion and optical transparency will be studied in rubidium systems. Two graduate and two undergraduate students will participate in the proposed work. ***
