Non Resonant Case of Energy Exchange Between a Two–Level Atom and a Single Mode Radiation Field


Abstract in English

The quantum mechanical analysis for a non-resonant case of a single radiation mode interacting with a two-level atom in a cavity is studied. Expressions for the mean value of photon number and the time evolution of the atomic motion are given. The frequency of exchange energy between the atomic levels and the radiation field systems for non- resonant and resonant interactions is obtained. Results for all initial states of the atom-radiation field are presented. Results for resonant and non-resonant interactions are compared.
