摘要：

We describe a method of He-3 polarimetry relying on the polarization-dependent frequency shift of the Rb Zeeman resonance. Our method is ideally suited for on-line measurements of the 3He polarization produced by spin-exchange optical pumping. To calibrate the frequency shift we performed an accurate measurement of the imaginary part of the Rb-He-3 spin-exchange cross section in the temperature range typical for spin-exchange optical pumping of He-3. We also present a detailed study of possible systematic errors in the frequency shift polarimetry. [S1050-2947(98)01010-5].
