Introduction to the Rotating Wave Approximation (RWA): Two Coherent Oscillations

In this note, I introduce a mysterious approximation called the rotating wave approximation (RWA) to undergraduates or non-experts who are interested in both Mathematics and Quantum Optics. In Quantum Optics, it plays a very important role in order to obtain an analytic approximate solution of some SchrÖdinger equation, while it …
