Electron-impact coherence parameters for electron-impact excitation of laser-excited 174Yb (. . . 6s6p 3P1)

We have measured and calculated the P3 collision Stokes parameter for electron-impact collisional de-excitation to the ytterbium (. . . 6s6p 3P1) level from the higher-lying 1P1, 3D1,2,3 and 3S1 levels for 20 eV residual energy. These processes are the time-reverse of the experimentally measured pro...
