30. - 1 (Ed1 - Ed2Γd2/2) |Vd1→d2|2. If the energy gap between the two decaying states is much larger than the decay width of the second step of the cascade, this expression reduces to Γd1=2π|Vd1 → d2|2. In this work we assume a large energy gap Ed1 - Ed2Γd2, which is indeed the common situation, but we would like to stress that interesting effects arise if this is not the case.
