Abstract

We present precise values of the dipole polarizabilities () of the ground and metastable states of Yb, that are %vital {\bf important} in reducing systematics in the clock frequency of the transition. The static values of for the ground and states are estimated to be and , respectively, while the tensor contribution to the state as compared to the experimental value . This corresponds to the differential scalar polarizability value of the above transition as (5) in contrast to the available experimental value (1.4)\,\, . This results in the black-body radiation (BBR) shift of the clock transition as Hz at the room temperature, which is large as compared to the previously estimated values. Using the dynamic values, we report the tune-out and magic wavelengths that could be of interest to subdue %major systematics due to the Stark shifts and for constructing lattice optical clock using Yb.
