Abstract :
The main characteristics of a miniature optically pumped cesium beam resonator (OPCsBR) are described. An evaluation of the frequency stability performances of this device is presented. Moreover, the dependence of the symmetry of the microwave spectrum on the laser detuning is discussed.<>
