Past exam of the quantum physics course of the University of Oxford / 2016 / 10 / c / Solution

Insert the expansion with amplitudes $c_1,c_2$ and the two unperturbed dynamical phases into $i\hslash \dot{\Psi }=(H_0+V)\Psi$. Differentiation of the explicit phases cancels $H_0$, leavingEquivalently, with $\Omega =(\omega -{\omega }_0)/2$,These interaction-picture equations conserve $|c_1{|}^2+|c_2{|}^2$. They are exact for the circularly rotating magnetic drive; a rotating-wave approximation has not been used.
