چکیده
Diffraction of multi-level atoms by an evanescent wave reflective diffraction grating is modeled by numerically solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation. We are able to explain the diffraction observed in experiments with metastable Neon. This is not possible using a two-level atom model. The multi-level model predicts sensitive dependence of diffraction on the laser polarization and on the intensity ratio of incoming and reflected laser beams.

We prove two kinds of fibering theorems for maps X → P , where X and P are Poincaré spaces. The special case of P = S yields a Poincaré duality analogue of the fibering theorem of Browder and Levine.
