The Atomic Operators Characteristic of the Split Components in the Study of Resonance Fluorescence from a Two-Level Atom

Abstract

The atomic operators with characteristic oscillations at the peak frequencies of each of the three split components in the scattering of an intense monochromatic electromagnetic field by a two-level atom are determined. The coupling of the atom-applied-field system with the damping oscillators via these operators is investigated to evaluate the spectrum of the scattered light when the separation of the spectral lines is much larger than their widths.
