1 Introduction

In this reference we present many of the physical and optical properties of 87Rb that are relevant to various

quantum optics experiments. In particular, we give parameters that are useful in treating the mechanical effects of

light on 87Rb atoms. The measured numbers are given with their original references, and the calculated numbers

are presented with an overview of their calculation along with references to more comprehensive discussions of

their underlying theory. We also present a detailed discussion of the calculation of fluorescence scattering rates,

because this topic is often not treated carefully in the literature.

Line Data” and “Sodium D Line Data.” Please send comments and corrections to dsteck@.

2 87Rb Physical and Optical Properties

Some useful fundamental physical constants are given in Table 1. The values given are the 1998 CODATA

recommended values, as listed in [1]. Some of the overall physical properties of 87Rb are given in Table 2. 87Rb

has 37 electrons, only one of which is in the outermost shell. 87Rb is not a stable isotope of rubidium, decaying

to β − + 87 Sr with a total disintegration energy of 0.283 MeV [2] (the only stable isotope is 85Rb), but has an

extremely slow
