摘要：

We report measurements of the 5d D-2(5/2), 5d D-2(3/2), and 11s S-2(1/2) state lifetimes in the Cs-133 atom to be 1281(9), 909(15), and 351(4) ns, respectively. A pulsed-dye laser selectively excites atomic Cs from the groundstate, via a single-photon quadrupole transition, to the 5d states and, via a two-photon electric dipole transition, to the Ils state. A spectrometer-photomultiplier system detects the fluorescence from the decay of interest and a digitizing oscilloscope records the direct output of the photomultiplier. The data are fit to an exponential function to yield a value for the mean lifetime of the selected state.
