Calculation Based On Quantum Electrodynamics
For quantum electrodynamical calculation, we should introduce the creation and annihilation operators from second quantization of quantum mechanics.
Let
- is a creation operator and
- is an annihilation operator.
Then the beat note becomes
- for V-type and
- for -type,
when the state vector for each type is
- and
- .
The beat note term becomes
- for V-type and
- for -type.
By orthogonality of eigenstates, however and .
Therefore, there is a beat note term for V-type atoms, but not for -type atoms.

Famous quotes containing the words calculation, based and/or quantum:
““To my thinking” boomed the Professor, begging the question as usual, “the greatest triumph of the human mind was the calculation of Neptune from the observed vagaries of the orbit of Uranus.”
“And yours,” said the P.B.”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
“That’s my problem, chaplain: I’m yellow. PFC Bernstein—plumb, fat coward. Hey, can you get a Section 8 for being yellow?”
—James Poe, U.S. screenwriter, and Based On Play. Robert Aldrich. Bernstein (Robert Strauss)
“The receipt to make a speaker, and an applauded one too, is short and easy.—Take of common sense quantum sufficit, add a little application to the rules and orders of the House, throw obvious thoughts in a new light, and make up the whole with a large quantity of purity, correctness, and elegancy of style.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
