Abstract

Rates of depopulation by blackbody radiation (BBR) and effective lifetimes of alkali-metal $nS$, $nP$, and $nD$ Rydberg states have been calculated in a wide range of principal quantum numbers $n\ensuremath{\le}80$ at the ambient temperatures of 77, 300, and 600 K. Quasiclassical formulas were used ...
