15Hamiltonian of a Diatomic
The quantum number increases and decreases in
units of 1.
However l must have a lowest allowable value,
since the energy has to be positive, i.e. E gt 0.

The reference and sample beams are coherent,
therefore they can interfere with each other.
The phase of the reference beam can be modulated
by changing the mirror position
