Recently there has been interest in the development of theoretical methods for incorporating the effects of finite laser bandwidth in the treatment of the ac Stark effect in the two-level atom approximation, and in the extension of this model to approximate descriptions of weak probe double resonance experiments [1]. In this paper we briefly describe some experimental observations which have played a role in motivating recent developments in the mathematical framework for treating finite laser bandwidth effects in phase diffusion models [2] and, more recently, in chaotic field models which include the effects of amplitude fluctuations [3].
