    <dc:title>A program to compute the two-step excitation of mesospheric sodium atoms for the Polychromatic Laser Guide Star Project </dc:title>
    <dc:publisher>Mendeley Data</dc:publisher>
    <dc:description>Abstract 
 A program to compute the two-step excitation of sodium atoms (3S _(1/2)→ 3P_(3/2)→ 4D_(5/2)) using the density-matrix formalism is presented. The BEACON program calculates population evolution and the number of photons emitted by fluorescence from the 3P _(3/2), 4D_(5/2), 4P_(3/2), 4S_(1/2)levels.
 
 Title of program: BEACON
 Catalogue Id: ADSX_v1_0
 
 Nature of problem 
 Resolution of the Bloch equations in the case of two-step laser excitation of sodium atoms.
