The existence of cross-over resonances makes saturated-absorption spectra very complicated when external magnetic field B is applied. It is demonstrated for the first time that the use of micrometric-thin cells (MTC, $Lapprox40,mu$m) allows application of SA for quantitative studies of frequency splittings and shifts of the Rb atomic transitions in a wide range of external magnetic fields, from 0.2 up to 6 kG (20-600 mT). We compare the SA spectra obtained with the MTC with those obtained with other techniques, and present applications for optical magnetometry with micrometer spatial resolution and a broadly tunable optical frequency reference.

An efficient $lambda/2$-method ($lambda$ is the resonant wavelength of laser radiation) based on nanometric-thickness cell filled with rubidium is implemented to study the splitting of hyperfine transitions of $^{85}$Rb and $^{87}$Rb $D_2$ lines in a
n external magnetic field in the range of $B =3$~kG -- 7~kG. It is experimentally demonstrated that at $B > 3$~kG from 38 (22) Zeeman transitions allowed at low $B$-field in $^{85}$Rb ($^{87}$Rb) spectra in the case of $sigma^+$ polarized laser radiation there remain only 12 (8) which is caused by decoupling of the total electronic momentum $textbf{J}$ and the nuclear spin momentum $textbf{I}$ (hyperfine Paschen-Back regime). Note that at $B > 4.5$~kG in the absorption spectrum these $20$ atomic transitions are regrouped in two completely separate groups of $10$ atomic transitions each. Their frequency positions and fixed (within each group) frequency slopes, as well as the probability characteristics are determined. A unique behavior of the atomic transitions of $^{85}$Rb and $^{87}$Rb labeled $19$ and $20$ (for low magnetic field they could be presented as transitions $F_g=3, m_F=+3 rightarrow F_e=4, m_F=+4$ and $F_g=2, m_F=+2 rightarrow F_e=3, m_F=+3$, correspondingly) is stressed. The experiment agrees well with the theory. Comparison of the behavior of atomic transitions for $D_2$ line compared with that of $D_1$ line is presented. Possible applications are described.
Magnetic field-induced giant modification of probabilities for seven components of 6S1/2 (Fg=3) - 6P3/2 (Fe=5) transition of Cs D2 line forbidden by selection rules is observed experimentally for the first time. For the case of excitation with circul
arly-polarized laser radiation, the probability of Fg=3,mF=-3 - Fe=5,mF=-2 transition becomes the largest among 25 transitions of Fg=3 - Fe=2,3,4,5 group in a wide range of magnetic field 200 - 3200 G. Moreover, the modification is the largest among D2 lines of alkali metals. A half-wave-thick cell (length along the beam propagation axis L=426 nm) filled with Cs has been used in order to achieve sub-Doppler resolution which allows for separating the large number of atomic transitions that appear in the absorption spectrum when an external magnetic field is applied. For B > 3 kG the group of seven transitions Fg=3 - Fe=5 is completely resolved and is located at the high frequency wing of Fg=3 - Fe=2,3,4 transitions. The applied theoretical model very well describes the experimental curves.
We investigate how the nonlinearity of the Zeeman shift for strong magnetic fields affects the dynamics of rf field induced evaporative cooling in magnetic traps. We demonstrate for the 87-Rb and 23-Na F=2 trapping states with wave packet simulations
how the cooling stops when the rf field frequency goes below a certain limit (for the 85-Rb F=2 trapping state the problem does not appear). We examine the applicability of semiclassical models for the strong field case as an extension of our previous work [Phys. Rev. A 58, 3983 (1998)]. Our results verify many of the aspects observed in a recent $^{87}$Rb experiment [Phys. Rev. A 60, R1759 (1999)].
Observation of internal quantum dynamics relies on correlations between the system being observed and the measurement apparatus. We propose using the center-of-mass (c.m.) degrees of freedom of atoms and molecules as a built-in monitoring device for
observing their internal dynamics in non-perturbative laser fields. We illustrate the idea on the simplest model system - the hydrogen atom in an intense, tightly-focused infrared laser beam. To this end, we develop a numerically-tractable, quantum-mechanical treatment of correlations between internal and c.m. dynamics. We show that the transverse momentum records the time excited states experience the field, allowing femtosecond reconstruction of the strong-field excitation process. The ground state becomes weak-field seeking, an unambiguous and long sought-for signature of the Kramers-Henneberger regime.
We describe the operation of two GaN-based diode lasers for the laser spectroscopy of gallium at 403 nm and 417 nm. Their use in an external cavity configuration enabled the investigation of absorption spectroscopy in a gallium hollow cathode. We hav
e analyzed the Doppler broadened profiles accounting for hyperfine and isotope structure and extracting both the temperature and densities of the neutral atomic sample produced in the glow discharge. We have also built a setup to produce a thermal atomic beam of gallium. Using the GaN-based diode lasers we have studied the laser induced fluorescence and hyperfine resolved spectra of gallium.
