Scientific paper

This paper derives master equations for an atomic two-level system for a large set of unitarily equivalent Hamiltonians without employing the rotating wave and certain Markovian approximations. Each Hamiltonian refers to physically different components as representing the "atom" and as representing the "field" and hence results in a different master equation, when assuming a photon-absorbing environment. It is shown that the master equations associated with the minimal coupling and the multipolar Hamiltonians predict enormous stationary state narrowband photon emission rates, even in the absence of external driving, for current experiments with single quantum dots and colour centers in diamond. These seem to confirm that the rotating wave Hamiltonian identifies the components of the atom-field system most accurately.
