Hi guys
As far as I have understood the technique of optical puming (OP), then if we look at the hyperfine state F=2 (for example), then OP can be used to prepare the atoms in the state F=2, mF=2, but not any other (i.e., lower) mF. Is there no technique for preparing atoms in a state with a lower mF?
