Abstract
The collision broadening of strontium Rydberg states under the influen ce of Xe, Ar and He gases has been studied by laser spectroscopy of tw o-photon excitation of Sr in a heat pipe. Broadening data for the 5snd D-1(2) series are reported with buffer gas pressure in the range of 1 0 Torr to 500 Torr. Observed anomalies in broadening parameters due to inter-configuration perturbation are discussed. (C) 1997 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
