    Notes: Relaxation time constants of electron polarization, 〈Sz〉, for optically pumped rubidium atoms in a drifilm coated glass cell have been investigated with the Faraday rotation method. The dependence of the 〈Sz〉 relaxation time on pump cell temperature, rubidium density and applied magnetic field has been determined with high precision. The measurements allow the determination of the local magnetic field on the surface, alkali-wall binding energy and wall-dwell time. Furthermore, the change of relaxation time caused by admixtures of molecular hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen has been investigated. No influence due to the addition of hydrogen could be detected up to a density of 3.3×1014 cm−3 at typical rubidium densities of several 1011 cm−3. The cross section for depolarizing collisons with molecular oxygen has been determined to be 7.50×10−15 cm2. The corresponding cross section for nitrogen was found to be two orders of magnitude lower. The experimental results are discussed in respect to the performance of spin exchange sources for nuclear polarized hydrogen and deuterium. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.
