This latter consists of a series of commutators that involve position, momentum, and Hamiltonian quantum operators. We analyzed several single- and many-particle cases for which a closed-form solution to the perturbation expansion exists, as well as more complicated cases for which a solution is found by convergence. Throughout the article, Rayleigh and Raman scattering are taken as examples of two-photon processes. The present method provides a clear distinction between the Thomson scattering, regarded as classical scattering, and quantum contributions. Such a distinction lets us derive general results concerning light scattering. Finally, possible extensions to the developed formalism are discussed.","lang":"eng"}],"main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1801.06892"}],"department":[{"_id":"MiLe"}],"issue":"4","publication_status":"published","date_published":"2018-04-18T00:00:00Z"}
