- Abstract: We investigate the Autler-Townes splitting for Rydberg atoms dressed with
linearly polarized microwave radiation, resonant with generic
$S_{1/2}\leftrightarrow{P}_{1/2}$ and $S_{1/2}\leftrightarrow{P}_{3/2}$
transitions. The splitting is probed using laser light via
electromagnetically-induced transparency measurements, where the transmission
of probe laser light reveals a two-peak pattern. In particular, this pattern is
invariant under rotation of the microwave field polarization. In consequence,
we establish $S \leftrightarrow P$ Rydberg transitions as ideally suited for
polarization-insensitive electrometry, contrary to recent findings [A.
Chopinaud and J.D. Pritchard, Phys. Rev. Appl. $\mathbf{16}$, 024008 (2021)].

We develop and demonstrate a spectroscopic method for Rydberg-Rydberg transitions using a standing-wave laser field.
The method is based on the ponderomotive interaction of the Rydberg electron, which has less-restrictive selection rules than electric-dipole couplings.
The method paves the way for optical Doppler-free high-precision spectroscopy of Rydberg-Rydberg transitions and for spatially-selective qubit manipulation.

We report experimental measurements of the rates of blackbody radiation-induced transitions between high-lying (n>60) S, P and D Rydberg levels of rubidium atoms in a magneto-optical trap.
Our results reveal significant deviations of the measured transition rates from theory for well-defined ranges of the principal quantum number.
We conclude that it should be possible to use such external cavities to control and suppress the blackbody radiation-induced transitions.
