We derive the Maxwell--Bloch equations for a two--level medium and discuss their applicability to standard three-- and four--level systems. After discusing amplification, we consider lasing and pay special attention to obtaining the laser equations in the uniform field approximation. Finally, the connection of the laser equations with the Lorenz model is considered. 2006 artículo científico 0035-001X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=57065614 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=570 Revista Mexicana de Física application/pdf Sociedad Mexicana de Física A.C.
