contents We study doubly degenerate (Juddian) eigenvalues for the Quantum Rabi Hamiltonian, a simple model of the interaction between a two-level atom and a single quantized mode of light. We prove a strong form of the density conjecture of Kimoto, Reyes-Bustos, and Wakayama, showing that any fixed value of the splitting between the two atomic levels, there is a dense set of coupling strengths for which the corresponding Rabi Hamiltonian admits Juddian eigenvalues. We also construct infinitely many sets of parameters for which the Rabi Hamiltonian admits two distinct Juddian eigenvalues. The fine structure of the zeros of classical Laguerre polynomials plays a key role in our methods.
