Abstract
A theory which explains self-consistently the emission and the polariz ation rotation of transmitted light has been developed for F(A) centre s in crystals with cubic symmetry. Azimuthal dependences of F(A) lumin escence in alkali halides are very informative for determining the ele ctron-phonon interaction as well as the parameters related to the stru ctural and optical quality for colour centre lasers crystals. The theo retical results are applied to the interpretation of the luminescence properties of F(A) (Li) centres in KCl, RbCl and KF.
