  text: We investigate the quantum interference shifts between energetically close
    states, where the state structure is observed by laser spectroscopy. We report
    a compact and analytical expression that models the quantum interference induced
    shift for any admixture of circular polarization of the incident laser and angle
    of observation. An experimental scenario free of quantum interference can thus
    be predicted with this formula. Although this study is exemplified here for muonic
    deuterium, it can be applied to any other laser spectroscopy measurement of ns-n′p
    frequencies of a nonrelativistic atomic system, via an ns→n′p→n′′s scheme.
