Cesium D Line Data and Sodium D Line Data have been moved to a new site

The Angular Distribution of Resonance Fluorescence from a Zeeman-Degenerate Atom: Formalism (pdf, 142KB) – The name basically says it all. This reference explains how to use the solutions to the atomic master equation to calculate the polarization, frequency, and angular distribution of the scattered fluorescence, and it includes a brief development of the master equation itself. (Last revised 18 September 1998.)

Atomic Motion in a Standing Wave of Far-Detuned Light (ps, 756KB) -- Essentially all the experiments done in our lab are based on the argument presented here. (Last revised 18 October 1998.)


Designs

A Laboratory Control System for Cold Atom Experiments We have developed a simple yet effective hardware and software system for control in cold atom experiments.

A LaTeX style file for UT dissertations. These files were written by Young U. Ryu in 1991 and have been updated and maintained by Miguel A. Lerma (see his other software posted here). This style file works quite well for producing dissertations, although it is not endorsed by the University. Here is a style file to modify some of the behavior of this package to make the signature page according to the new format, effective Fall 2001. Read the top of the file for documentation.
