Laser and excited state linewidths in Rabi oscillations

In summary, the study of laser and excited state linewidths in Rabi oscillations explores the effects of laser coherence and excited state dynamics on the behavior of quantum systems under oscillatory driving. It highlights how variations in linewidths can influence the Rabi frequency, coherence times, and overall efficiency of quantum transitions. The findings contribute to a better understanding of the interplay between laser properties and quantum state manipulation, with implications for quantum computing and precision measurement technologies.

Hello! I want to simulate (numerically if analytically is not possible) the behavior of a 2 level system, when driven by a laser (basically transition probability vs laser frequency for fixed pulsed time) accounting for the laser and atomic linewidth (in my case I can assume they are comparable). What is the best way to proceed? Thank you!

Thank you for this! I never used Qutip before, but it looks great! Do they give details about the physics behind it, too? In particular, I would like to know how to include the laser linewidth in the Hamiltonian/density matrix approach, even if I am not able to solve it analytically.
