Abstract

The Hanle resonance investigated as an optical field induced circular birefringence has been applied to studying the collisional depolarisation in the 4f 66s2 7FJ (J not=0) levels of Sm by rare gas perturbers. The measured cross sections for the destruction of orientation in 4f 66s2 7FJ (J=1-6) by He and Ar perturbers are reported. The data for the 7F1 level are compared with previous works.
