Abstract
We report a experimental investigation of the Cs D2 line-shape changes due to laser-induced optical pumping and collisions in a buffer gas. A model dealing with the population of the ground-state hyperfine leve ls, the pressure broadening in the presence of Ne, and the diffusion o f the atoms outside the laser beam describes well the complex line sha pes.
