A review of experimental studies of the measurement of the photoionization cross-section for
the excited states of the alkali atoms, alkaline earth atoms, and rare-gas atoms is presented …

We have studied the ion detection of barium atoms in special heated ovens with a tungsten
rod in the middle of the stainless steel tube. The tungsten rod was heated indirectly by the …

The spectrum of barium above the first ionization potential is significantly modified by
collisions with rare gas atoms. Atomic Ba vapor was produced in a heat-pipe oven. The two …

Femtosecond (fs) laser propagation and fluorescence of dense potassium vapor was
studied, and the spectral region around the first and the second doublets of the principal …

We studied the signal from a thermionic diode when a femtosecond laser beam was
spatially overlapped by an excimer pumped dye laser beam. The nanosecond dye laser was …

The first autoionization region of barium was studied using a single-color two-photon
excitation scheme. The resonance energies and linewidths of barium 5d 3/2 nd 1 D 0, 2 …

Broadening and shift of spectral lines in dense Ba and Sr vapor have been studied below
and above their first ionization limits. The latter are well-known autoionizing spectral lines …
