Abstract
In this paper, we propose an in-depth review of the vector and tensor polarizabilities of the two energy levels of the clock transition whose measurement was reported in P. G. Westergaard et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 210801 (2011)]. We conduct a theoretical calculation that reproduces the measured coefficients. In addition, we detail the experimental conditions used for their measurement in two Sr optical lattice clocks and exhibit the quadratic behavior of the vector and tensor shifts with the depth of the trapping potential and evaluate their impact on the accuracy of the clock.
