  People how know what an expectation value is are typically not so fond of gambling. Reminds me of the story when a physics conference took place in Las Vegas and resulted in a really low take for the casino.

  Hmmm… Rotisserie frog :)

  Typical transition frequencies between two levels of an atom are 10^15Hz. The coupling between atoms and light is on the order of the decay rate at which photons are transmitted, which sits around 10^6Hz.

  I describe the atoms using a so called Lindblad master equation. The atoms are kept in this description, but the light field is eliminated using two assumptions:

  1. The coupling between the two is very weak.
  2. Correlations between the two decay so fast that this can be considered instantaneous.

  The later produces white noise.

  I work on quantum systems coupled to noisy environments (noisy as in causing random fluctuations). Atoms coupled to a light field are my specialty. I just got invited by a predatory journal in the field of acoustics, vibrations and noise?!
