Description

For the first time a transition from a second- to first-order dipole-dipole interaction (van der Waals to resonance interaction) has been observed in a study of the excited EuSr molecule which dissociates into europium 4f75s6p 8P/sub 9/2/ and strontium 5s21P1 atoms. The transition was verified by measurement of the wavelength dependence in the quasistatic wings of the cw-laser--excited 4595.3-A line in Eu broadened by Sr ground-state atoms
