Abstract

In optical pumping of rubidium, a new kind of absorption occurs with a higher amplitude of radio frequency current. From measurement of the corresponding magnetic field value where this absorption occurs, there is a conclusion that it is multi-photon absorption. Both the degeneracy and energy of photons contribute to the intensity.
