We show that two-photon coherent control in a $V$-shape three-level system projects one-photon coherent transient in a simple two-level system. Higher order chirps of a shaped laser pulse play the roles of time and linear chirp in…

We consider theoretically light scattering by a resonant layer that periodically moves in real space. At small frequencies of motion the scattered light spectrum reveals the frequency shift that is governed by the Doppler effect. At higher…
A periodically driven quantum system with avoided-level crossing experiences both non-adiabatic transitions and wave-function phase changes. These result in coherent interference fringes in the system's occupation probabilities. For qubits,…
