Detailed collisional-radiative (CR) modeling has been used to simulate the spectrum. The atomic structure data for the CR modeling were calculated using the relativistic many-body perturbation theory (RMBPT) and the large-scale relativistic configuration interaction (RCI) method implemented in the flexible atomic code. The two set theoretical calculation wavelengths for six observed lines are in reasonable agreement with the experimental observations, with average deviations of 0.61% for RMBPT and 1.75% for RCI.

We present several lump-soliton solutions to the nonlinear coupled equations minimizing the energy functional. The energies of the lump solitons with different winding numbers indicate coexistence of lumps with different winding numbers and a lack of advantage to break a higher-winding lump soliton into multiple lower-winding ones.

With the Cs atom localised near the outer surface of the optical nano-fibre, an interaction occurs between the atomic quadrupole tensor components and the gradients of the vector components of the electric field of a hybrid fibre mode. The absorption rate is evaluated as a function of the radial position of the atom from the fibre axis, assuming a specific value of the laser power and we use experimentally accessible parameters. We find that the absorption of the hybrid modes by the Cs atom decreases as the atom recedes away from the fibre axis and it formally vanishes at sufficiently large radial distances. Close to the fibre, however, the absorption rate for the input power chosen can be two orders of magnitude larger than the quadrupole de-excitation rate despite the moderate power used.","PeriodicalId":16799,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics B","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135945118","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The atoms were incident to the field as an impinging beam with the most probable velocity of 550 m s −1 and experienced a peak oscillating field of 20 mT. Unwanted spin relaxation caused by the collisions of the atoms with the film surface was suppressed by the paraffin coating on the film. We observed increasing hyperfine transition probabilities as the frequency of the field oscillations experienced by the atoms increased from 0 to 140 MHz for the atomic velocity of 550 m s −1 , by changing the incident angle of the atomic beam with respect to the stripe domains. Numerical calculation of the time evolution of the hyperfine states revealed that the oscillating magnetic field experienced by the atoms induced the hyperfine transitions, and the main process was not a single-quantum transition but rather multi-quanta transitions.","PeriodicalId":16799,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics B","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136254310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
