| Summary:

Fluorescence spectra of the $8P_{J}{rightarrow}$ $6P_{J’}$ ($J$ and $J’$ =
3/2, 1/2) electric quadrupole transition of cesium atoms have been observed
with a heated cesium vapor cell. We determined the ratio of the transition
probabilities of $8P_{J}{rightarrow}$ $6P_{J’}$ to $8P_{J}{rightarrow}$
$5D_{3/2}$ by comparing their respective photon emission rates. The results are
in good agreement with our theoretical calculations. These measurements provide
crucial parameters for tests of coherent amplification method and improve
knowledge of cesium properties which are essential to dark matter detection
through atomic transitions.
