Abstract

We present an analytic calculation for linear susceptibility in pump-probe spectroscopy for a Doppler broadened atomic vapor. The analytic form of the population of each magnetic sublevel of a $^{87}\mathrm{Rb}$ atom, illuminated by a weak circularly polarized pump beam, was calculated for the lowest order of laser intensity and used in the calculation for the susceptibility of a counterpropagating (copropagating) probe beam. The obtained analytic results for the susceptibility can be used for calculating the absorption or the refractive index of the probe beam as functions of pump beam diameter and intensity.
