A study of spin-exchange polarization transfer in hydrogen-rubidium collisions

  • 1. Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow (Russian Federation). Inst. for Nuclear Research

Description

The results of experimental studies of basic limitations on optical pumping of high density rubidium vapor are presented. A maximum 40% proton polarization obtained in a spin exchange optically pumped polarized H- ion source using a 30 cm long dry-film coated cell. About 50% polarization was measured with a 90 cm long copper uncoated cell at a Rb thickness of 8 x 1014 atoms/cm2. A pulsed Ti:sapphire laser was used for optical pumping of Rb with up to 1 kW pulsed power, 200 μsec pulse duration and 10-15 GHz linewidth. (author). 18 refs., 5 figs
