Deflection of krypton Rydberg atoms in the field of an electric dipole
The controlled deflection of Rydberg atoms in an inhomogeneous electric field is demonstrated and shown to be in agreement with predictions based on a well-defined Stark map. Krypton atoms in a supersonic beam are excited in a two-colour multiphoton process to selected Stark states with n = 16-19 an...
