Consider a photon in the visible region of the spectrum emitted during an atomic transition of about 10-8 s. How long is the wave packet? Keeping in mind the results of the previous problem (if you've done it), estimate the line width of the packet (λ0 = 500 nm). What can you say about its monochromaticity, as indicated by the frequency stability?
