In this reference we present many of the physical and optical properties of cesium that are
relevant to various quantum optics experiments. In particular, we give parameters that are …

A consistent, up-to-date description of the extremely manifold and varied experimental
techniques which nowadays enable work with neutral particles. Th book lays the physical …

We compute the reduced electric-dipole matrix elements〈 n S 1/2|| D|| n′ PJ〉 with n= 6, 7
and n′= 6, 7,..., 12 in cesium using the most complete to date ab initio relativistic coupled …

Time-correlated single-photon counting is used to measure the lifetimes of the 6p 2 P 1/2
and 6p 2 P 3/2 levels in atomic Cs with accuracies≊ 0.2–0.3%. A high-repetition-rate …

We provide a detailed description of our fast-beam laser lifetime measurements in atomic
cesium. Selective excitation of the neutral 133 Cs 6 p 2 P 1/2 and 6 p 2 P 3/2 states is …

Using recent high-precision measurements of electric dipole matrix elements of atomic
cesium, we make an improved determination of the scalar (α) and vector (β) polarizabilities …

Motivated by recent interest in their applications, we report a systematic study of Cs atomic
properties calculated by a high-precision relativistic all-order method. Excitation energies …

Motivated by recent measurements for several alkali-metal atoms and alkali-metal-like ions,
we perform a detailed study of electric dipole (E 1) transition amplitudes in K, Ca+, Rb, Sr+ …

The mean lifetimes τ of the Ca+ 4p 2 P 3/2 and 2 P 1/2 levels have been measured to≊ 0.3%
precision using a variant of the collinear laser-beam–ion-beam spectroscopy technique …

We report measurements of the 6 p 2 P 1/2 and 6 p 2 P 3/2 state lifetimes in the Cs 133 atom
with precisions of 0.23% and 0.27%, respectively. The results are important to the …
