Thesis (Ph. D.)--University of Rochester. Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, 2008.We consider the propagation of short, intense laser pulses through media consisting of two-level and three-level atoms. We derive the coupled Maxwell-Bloch (MB) equations, which describe such propagation. Many different physical situations have been studied by analyzing various limiting cases of these equations. Most of the recent work has relied on steady-state or adiabatic assumptions to simplify the analysis of the MB equations. However rapid progress has been made in recent years in developing analytic solution techniques that do not require these simplifications, such as Bäcklund transformations, inverse scattering methods, and Darboux transforma...
