Rotating wave approximation

The rotating wave approximation is an approximation used in atom optics and magnetic resonance. In this approximation, terms in a Hamiltonian which oscillate rapidly are neglected. This is a valid approximation when the applied electromagnetic radiation is near resonance with an atomic transition, and the intensity is low. Explicitly, terms in the Hamiltonians which oscillate with frequencies \omega_L+\omega_0 are neglected, while terms which oscillate with frequencies \omega_L-\omega_0 are kept, where \omega_L is the light frequency and \omega_0 is a transition frequency.
The name of the approximation stems from the form of the Hamiltonian in the interaction picture, as shown below. By switching to this picture the evolution of an atom due to the corresponding atomic Hamiltonian is absorbed into the system ket, leaving only the evolution due to the interaction of the atom with the light field to consider. It is in this picture that the rapidly oscillating terms mentioned previously can be neglected. Since in some sense the interaction picture can be thought of as rotating with the system ket only that part of the electromagnetic wave that approximately co-rotates is kept; the counter-rotating component is discarded.
== Mathematical formulation ==

For simplicity consider a two-level atomic system with ground and excited states |\text\rangle and |\text\rangle, respectively (using the Dirac bracket notation). Let the energy difference between the states be \hbar\omega_0 so that \omega_0 is the transition frequency of the system. Then the unperturbed Hamiltonian of the atom can be written as
: H_0=\hbar\omega_0|\text\rangle\langle\text|.
Suppose the atom experiences an external classical electric field of frequency \omega_L, given by
\vec(t) = \vec_0 e^ +\vec_0^
* e^,
e.g. a plane wave propagating in space. Then under the dipole approximation the interaction Hamiltonian between the atom and the electric field can be expressed as
: H_1=-\vec\cdot\vec,
where \vec is the dipole moment operator of the atom. The total Hamiltonian for the atom-light system is therefore H=H_0+H_1. The atom does not have a dipole moment when it is in an energy eigenstate, so \langle\text|\vec|\text\rangle=\langle\text|\vec|\text\rangle=0. This means that defining \vec_|\vec|\text\rangle allows the dipole operator to be written as
: \vec=\vec_\rangle\langle\text|+\vec_\rangle\langle\text|
(with ^
* denoting the complex conjugate). The interaction Hamiltonian can then be shown to be (see the Derivation section below)
: H_1 = -\hbar\left(\Omega e^+\tildee^\right)|\text\rangle\langle\text|
-\hbar\left(\tilde^
*e^+\Omega^
*e^\right)|\text\rangle\langle\text|
where \Omega=\hbar^\vec_\text\cdot\vec_0 is the Rabi frequency and \tilde:=\hbar^\vec_\text\cdot\vec_0^
* is the counter-rotating frequency. To see why the \tilde terms are called `counter-rotating' consider a unitary transformation to the interaction or Dirac picture where the transformed Hamiltonian H_ is given by
: H_=-\hbar\left(\Omega e^+\tildee^\right)|\text\rangle\langle\text|
-\hbar\left(\tilde^
*e^+\Omega^
*e^\right)|\text\rangle\langle\text|,
where \Delta:=\omega_L-\omega_0 is the detuning between the light field and the atom.
