Single shot, double differential spectral measurements of inverse Compton scattering in linear and nonlinear regimes

Y. Sakai, I. Gadjev, P. Hoang +18

Inverse Compton scattering (ICS) is a unique mechanism for producing fast pulses - picosecond and below - of bright X- to gamma-rays. These nominally narrow spectral bandwidth elec…

Measuring the Stokes parameters for light transmitted by a high-density rubidium vapour in large magnetic fields

Lee Weller, Toryn Dalton, Paul Siddons +2

Here we report on measurements of the absolute absorption and dispersion of light in a dense rubidium vapour on the D2 line in the weak-probe regime with an applied magnetic field.…

Optical preparation and measurement of atomic coherence at gigahertz bandwidth

Paul Siddons, Charles S. Adams, Ifan G. Hughes

We detail a method for the preparation of atomic coherence in a high density atomic medium, utilising a coherent preparation scheme of gigahertz bandwidth pulses. A numerical simul…

Absolute absorption on rubidium D1 line: including resonant dipole-dipole interactions

Lee Weller, Robert J Bettles, Paul Siddons +2

Here we report on measurements of the absolute absorption spectra of dense rubidium vapour on the D1 line in the weak-probe regime for temperatures up to 170 C and number densities…

Optical control of Faraday rotation in hot Rb vapor

Paul Siddons, Charles S. Adams, Ifan G. Hughes

We demonstrate controlled polarization rotation of an optical field conditional on the presence of a second field. Induced rotations of greater than pi/2 rad are seen with a transm…

Off-resonance absorption and dispersion in a Doppler-broadened medium

Paul Siddons, Charles S Adams, Ifan G Hughes

We study the absorptive and dispersive properties of Doppler-broadened atomic media as a function of detuning. Beginning from the exact lineshape calculated for a two-level atom, a…
