A RUBIDIUM MAGNETIC DIRECTION-FINDER FOR ASW APPLICATION

Abstract

An investigation of the Dehmelt effect in optically pumped Rubidium cells is presented. It is shown that, under impulsive magnetization reversal, an enhancement of the direct ground-state excitation transitions occurs; this results in a modification of the optical transient transmission response. The application of the impulsive Dehmelt effect for the design of a Rubidium magnetic compass is presented; such compass may find application in ASW.
