Abstract
Orientation and alignment depolarization cross sections have been measured for the excited state of lead. The cross sections are characteristic of resonance collision broadening; for cm/sec. The ratio of orientation broadening to alignment broadening was found to be . Expressions are derived for the signal shapes in Hanle-effect, optical-double-resonance, and light-beat experiments that show which components of the signals depend on orientation and alignment relaxation times, respectively.
