Physics Asked on March 14, 2021
The D2 line of $^{87}mathrm{Rb}$ is the transition between the $5^2mathrm P_{3/2}$ and the $5^2mathrm S_{1/2}$ states. Its linewidth $Gamma$ is always quoted to be $sim 6 mathrm{MHz}$.
But both states have hyperfine splittings.
The transition now is between each (allowed) pair of hyperfine states: how do we calculate the linewidth of each of these transitions?
