Abstract

We present analytical and invariant expressions for the steady-state density matrix of atoms in a resonant radiation field with arbitrary intensity and arbitrary elliptical polarization. The field drives the closed dipole transition with arbitrary values of the angular momenta of the ground J_g and excited J_e states. These transitions can be classified depending on the structure of the solution and its physical peculiarities.
