Polarization of foil-excited ions

  • 1. Kyoto Univ. (Japan). Faculty of Engineering

Description

After brief survey of some characteristic features of optical radiation emitted from the foil-excited ions with emphasis on the polarization, this paper presents measurement of polarized photon emission from the foil-excited 4He+ ion in an external static electric field parallel to the ion beam. Strong asymmetry was observed when the direction of the external field is reversed. The results is interpreted in terms of coherent superposition of states of opposite parity. (author)
