Scientific paper

The light-induced drift velocity of multilevel atoms has been calculated in the strong-collision approximation. The solution is presented in a general form which can be easily applied to various systems. Specific calculations of drift velocities are presented for the system Rb:Ar for the cases of single-frequency and multifrequency laser excitation. A calculation is also presented for the case of a white light excitation spectrum with a spectral dip which could be caused by absorption of light by another substance in the vapor, such as occurs in stellar atmospheres.
