48. This essentially amounts to assuming that the strong laser field fully smears out all relevant intermediate energy levels.

50. This may most easily be seen in a perturbation approach, where the probability amplitude for absorption is derived by integrating over the exp (-iωt) term of field amplitude 6, while stimulated emission originates from integrating over exp (iωt) and has, consequently, the opposite sign.
51. Formally, one might also write these states as properly coupled states | (l1 l2) LM with total angular momentum L. However, since no specific angular momentum coupling potential is active, this would only lead to trivial complications in the evaluation of transition matrix elements without changing the final result.
