Useful transformations: from ion-laser interactions to master equations
arXiv:0806.4167 · doi:10.1007/s11490-008-3025-3
Abstract
We show set of transformations which allow to obtain analytic solutions in several quantum-optical problems. We start with the ion-laser (time dependent) interaction, continue with the problem of a slow atom interacting with a quantized field to end with a master equation that describes losses. In all cases it is shown that one may find useful transformations that simplify the problems.
