Abstract
We discuss the dynamics of a two-level model in a strong coupling regime th rough the analysis of the probability amplitudes. It is seen that the theor y recovers Rabi flopping also for strong coupling. Population trapping can occur and a decay constant for the excited state is also computed. Then, sp ontaneous emission can be made to disappear or, otherwise, the emitted phot on turns out to have a frequency being an odd harmonic of the frequency of the perturbation.
