Abstract
Four of the six possible components in the sharp-line absorption spectrum have been observed in a sample of 0.05% ruby cooled to 95°K. The measured wavelengths and linewidths of the transitions are identical, within experimental error, to those calculated on the basis of observed absorptions to each of the excited levels from the ground state. The polarizations and relative strengths of the transitions are in good agreement with the existing crystal-field-theory predictions of Tanabe and Sugano.
