Q.e.d. beyond the rotating wave approximation

This thesis studies counter-rotating terms part of an Hamiltonian usually neglected in the so-called Rotating Wave Approximation. Generalising the usual description of light-matter interactions and open quantum systems it is demonstrated that normally neglected counter-rotating terms have the potent...
