58. Performing such an experiment on a system comprised of two harmonic potentials would result in the creation of a Glauber state upon the excited state potential; see, for example, R. J. Glauber, Phys. Rev. 131, 2766 (1963).

60. e is merely a scaling factor in weak-field calculations, its absolute value here is incidental.
61. e can also be observed, but this effect was smaller than the observed increase in pulse length. 44 RKR1 and LEVEL are programs written by the research group of R. Le Roy, University of Waterloo, 1988.
62. It was empirically determined that increasing the amplitude of the probe pulse by a factor of 2.05 produced the best results.
