Indirect methods to control population distribution in a large spin system

We demonstrate how a large spin system ( $S=7/2$ ) with the ground and first excited state separated by a seven-photon transition exhibits nonequilibrium thermodynamic properties and how the population distribution may be manipulated using coupling between energy levels. The first method involves no...
