| Abstract: | Using the Dirac’s method, the formation of metastable molecular states at the resonance scattering of two atoms in the laser radiation field is considered. Expressions for the metastable level populations and the resonance scattering cross sections are obtained. In the case of an exact resonance with the laser radiation, the graphs for populations and resonance scattering cross sections, which have two peaks due to the Autler–Townes effect, are obtained. These results play an important role in the study of the controlled chemical reaction and for the understanding of the processes in the quantum systems of the Bose–Einstein condensate at low temperatures, as well as in the various optical processes in atomic gases. |
