Data associated with the publication: "Zeeman-resolved Autler-Townes splitting in Rydberg atoms with a tunable RF resonance and a single transition dipole moment"Applying a magnetic field as a method for tuning the frequency of Autler-Townes splitting for Rydberg electrometry has recently been demonstrated. In the corresponding paper, we provide a theoretical understanding of EIT signals in the presence of a large magnetic field, as well as demonstrate some advantages of this technique over traditional Autler-Townes based electrometry. We show that a strong magnetic field provides a well-defined quantization axis regardless of the optical field polarizations, we demonstrate that by separating the $m_J$ levels of the Rydberg state we can perform an Autler-Townes splitting with a single participating dipole moment, and we demonstrate recovery of signal strength by populating a single $m_J$ level using circularly polarized light.Included in this dataset is the data associated with every plot in the paper, separated by figure number, including:FIgure 2: Measured EIT signals in the presence of a strong(1.85(1) mT) magnetic field either aligned with or orthogonalto the polarization axis. Figure 3: Theoretical EIT signals for Cs in the presence ofa 1.85(1) mT magnetic field for light polarizations alignedto or orthogonal to the magnetic field.Figure 4: Measured Autler-Townes splittings in individual mJlevels via the 58D5/2(mJ = ±5/2) ? 59P3/2(mJ = ±3/2)transitions of Cs in the presence of 2.78(1) mT.Figure 5: Measured Autler-Townes splittings on the Cs58D5/2 ? 59P3/2 transition with and without mJ selectivityfor various RF fields up to 3.08 V/m. Figure 6: EIT in the presence of a large magnetic field using circularly polarized light.EIT signals correspond to voltage traces (collected on an oscilloscope) of a balanced photodiode as laser frequencies are scanned. The x axis is converted from a time series of each voltage to a frequency using a reference cell. The scaling is determined by measuring the difference between the EIT peaks corresponding to the D5/2 and D3/2 Rydberg states, and the zero is generally taken to be the location of the D5/2 EIT peak.
