ROTATION OF ELLIPTIC OSCILLATION IN A MOLECULAR-BEAM MASER IN A WEAK AXIAL MAGNETIC-FIELD
The oscillation polarization ellipse in a molecular beam disc resonator maser is shown to be strongly rotated when a weak axial magnetic field is applied. The phenomenon is a microwave analogue of a similar behaviour observed in gas lasers, and is interpreted here in terms of lumped resonator anisot...
