From: Fundamental Limitation on Cooling under Classical Noise

Numerical comparison of the final and initial ground state populations Q 1 vs. P 1 for a three-level system subject to noisy stimulated adiabatic passage. Considered are randomly generated initial states, noise distributions λ k âs, and classical noise affecting the parameter Ξ (circles, with α fixed as \(\cos \,\alpha =\sqrt{1/3}\)) and α (squares, with Ξ fixed as \(\cos \,\theta =\sqrt{7/10}\)).
