28. Already in Ref. [1] Mollow notes that the form of the spectrum (12) (zero detuning) can be attributed to the addition of two Lorentzian components, one of which appears with negative weight.

30. This is also expected from general results of linewidth broadening due to nonmonochromatic sources. See, e.g., Ref. [1].
