摘要：

We present an experimental investigation of the effects of magnetic field on cooling and trapping of neutral atoms. Applied to optical molasses, a static magnetic field often produces spectacular effects. It can induce either a sub-Doppler cooling effect or shift a sub-Doppler-cooled atomic sample away from its zero-velocity position. Some of the effects can find potential applications in the manipulation of cesium atoms (deflecting an atomic beam or launching an optical molasses into an atomic fountain) and can probably be used in the development of future cesium atomic frequency standard. The observed experimental effects are interpreted by simple physical models and calculations.
