Abstract

We observed a polarization change induced by laser radiation in the Raman-type three-level atom In in the presence of Ar. The observed two components in the polarization change spectrum of the probe beam correspond to the resonant Raman scattering and the luminescence processes in the spontaneous emission. The dependence of their intensities on the collision with Ar atoms agrees with the theory.
