Abstract
The role of additional channels for the decay of an excited level on the formation of coherent states of the ground level in alkali metal atoms upon interaction with polarized radiation is studied theoretically. Using an example of 39K, calculations show that these coherent states cannot be completely destroyed due to using additional decay channels.
