Y. Makdisi, SPECTRAL-LINE BROADENING OF SR UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF COLLISIONS WITHFOREIGN GAS PERTURBERS, Optics communications, 142(4-6), 1997, pp. 215-219
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
