Abstract

Description

The polarization of radiation by scattering on an atom embedded in combined external quadrupole electric and uniform magnetic fields is studied theoretically. Analytic formulae are derived for the scattering phase matrix. Limiting cases of scattering under Zeeman effect, and Hanle effect in weak magnetic fields are discussed.
Uses Astronomy and Astrophysics journal-class file; 8 pages (in referee format) and includes 7 eps figure files
