A Unifying Polarization Formalism for Electric and Magnetic Multipole Interactions

We extend the spherical tensorial formalism for polarization to the treatment of electric and magnetic multipole transitions of any order. We rely on the spherical-wave expansion to derive the tensor form of the operator describing the interaction of the atomic system with a polarized radiation fiel...
