Search for plant biomagnetism with a sensitive atomic magnetometer
Eric Corsini, Victor Acosta, Nicolas Baddour +6
We report what we believe is the first experimental limit placed on plant biomagnetism. Measurements with a sensitive atomic magnetometer were performed on the Titan arum (Amorphop…
Rubidium dimers in paraffin-coated cells
V. M. Acosta, A. Jarmola, D. Windes +7
Measurements were made to determine the density of rubidium dimer vapor in paraffin-coated cells. The number density of dimers and atoms in similar paraffin-coated and uncoated cel…
Cancellation of nonlinear Zeeman shifts with light shifts
K. Jensen, V. M. Acosta, J. M. Higbie +3
Nonlinear Zeeman (NLZ) shifts arising from magnetic-field mixing of the two hyperfine ground-states in alkali atoms lead to splitting of magnetic-resonance lines. This is a major s…
Production and detection of atomic hexadecapole at Earth's magnetic field
V. M. Acosta, M. Auzinsh, W. Gawlik +9
Anisotropy of atomic states is characterized by population differences and coherences between Zeeman sublevels. It can be efficiently created and probed via resonant interactions w…
Spin-exchange relaxation free magnetometry with Cs vapor
M. P. Ledbetter, I. M. Savukov, V. M. Acosta +2
We describe a Cs atomic magnetometer operating in the spin-exchange relaxation-free (SERF) regime. With a vapor cell temperature of we achieve intrinsic magnetic…
Nonlinear magneto-optical rotation with frequency-modulated light in the geophysical field range
V. Acosta, M. P. Ledbetter, S. M. Rochester +6
Recent work investigating resonant nonlinear magneto-optical rotation (NMOR) related to long-lived ($τ\ts{rel} \sim 1 {\rm s}$) ground-state atomic coherences has demonstrated pote…
