Spectral narrowing in coherent Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering.
Coherent Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering is a four-wave mixing technique that provides information on various physical properties of the scattering medium in the spectral domain. Being based on density gratings generated by dipole forces, the method requires two pump beams of sufficient spectral width to span the full response bandwidth of the scattering medium. We provide experimental data on th...
متن کاملSpectral narrowing in coherent rayleigh scattering.
Spectral narrowing of the coherent Rayleigh scattering line shape in a room temperature CO(2) gas (2.5 x 10(23) m(-3)) with intense fields in the 10(15) W m(-2) range is observed. The line shape saturates to a width of approximately half that observed at low pump intensities and indicates a transition from scattering primarily from untrapped molecules to that from both trapped and untrapped mol...
متن کاملCoherent Rayleigh-Brillouin Scattering: Influence of the Intermolecular Potential
The spectrum of the coherent Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering (CRBS) of light by a rarefied gas is obtained by solving the Boltzmann equation numerically using the fast spectral method. The influence of the intermolecular potential on the CRBS spectrum is investigated and the accuracy of the prevailing Tenti’s s6 kinetic model is evaluated. Our numerical results show that i) the intermolecular pot...
متن کاملRemote-sensing gas measurements with coherent Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering
We measure the coherent Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering (CRBS) signal integral as a function of the recorded gas pressure in He, Co2, SF6, and air, and we confirm the already established quadratic dependence of the signal on the gas density. We propose the use of CRBS as an effective diagnostic for the remote measurement of gas’ density (pressure) and temperature, as well as polarizability, for g...
متن کاملRayleigh-Brillouin scattering of carbon dioxide.
The spectral line shape of spontaneous Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering in CO2 is studied in a range of pressures. The spectrum is influenced by the bulk viscosity η(b), which is a relaxation phenomenon involving the internal degrees of freedom of the molecule. The associated relaxation rates can be compared to the frequency shift of the scattered light, which demands precise measurements of the s...
