Description

Research is described on a jet of polarized atomic hydrogen. Atoms in the two lower hyperfine states are trapped at 0.4 k in a 5 T magnetic field. Microwaves at 140 GHz then drive transitions to the upper hyperfine states and these atoms are expelled from the field to form the beam. Atoms have been trapped, transitions driven, and atoms detected outside the trapping field, but preliminary measurements are not fully understood. Studies are continuing
