- Abstract
The dichroism of a neon gas discharge plasma in a weak magnetic field is investigated by scanning the 3s[sub 2]-2p[sub 4] transition by monochromatic laser radiation. Magneto-optical resonances of the intrinsic macroscopic alignment and hidden alignment of the 2p[sub 4] level are separated. Against the background of these resonances, resonances attributed to coherence transfer from the 1s[sub 2, 4 5] levels and the birefringence of the wings of the nearest absorption lines from the 1S[sub 4, 5] levels are observed. A hew type of alignment is revealed—integral hidden alignment, whose lifetime, in contrast to the case with macroscopic alignment, increases without bound with increasing radiation trapping.
