Journal Article
Whittaker, K., Keaveney, J., Hughes, I., Sargsyan, A., Sarkisyan, D., & Adams, C. (2015). Spectroscopic detection of atom-surface interactions in an atomic-vapor layer with nanoscale thickness. Physical Review A, 92(5), Article 052706. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreva.92.052706

We measure the resonance line shape of atomic-vapor layers with nanoscale thickness confined between two sapphire windows. The measurement is performed by scanning a probe laser through resonance and collecting the scattered light. The line shape is...

Hilbert transform: applications to atomic spectra (2015)
Journal Article
Whittaker, K., Keveaney, J., Hughes, I., & Adams, C. (2015). Hilbert transform: applications to atomic spectra. Physical Review A - Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Physics, 91(3), Article 032513. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreva.91.032513

In many areas of physics, the Kramers-Kronig relations are used to extract information about the real part of the optical response of a medium from its imaginary counterpart. In this paper we discuss an alternative but mathematically equivalent appro... Read More about Hilbert transform: applications to atomic spectra.
