In: Optics Communications Nr. 1-3, Jg. 90(1992), S. 46-50.http://hdl.handle.net/2003/2533510.17877/DE290R-2456Optical pumping in a transverse magnetic field can be significantly enhanced if the polarization of the pump beam is modulated at a frequency near the Larmor frequency of the atomic system or a submultiple thereof. We give a theoretical analysis of the associated dynamics and present experimental results from the ground state of atomic sodium.enElsevier530Transverse Optical Pumping with Polarization-Modulated Light10.1016/0030-4018(92)90325-Larticle (journal)
