    "abstract": "Recent studies of the decoherence induced by the quantum nature of the laser\nfield driving a two-state atom [J. Gea-Banacloche, Phys. Rev. A 65, 022308\n(2002); S. J. van Enk and H. J. Kimble, Quantum Inf. and Comp. 2, 1 (2002)]\nhave been questioned by Itano [W. M. Itano, Phys. Rev. A 68, 046301 (2003)] and\nthe proposal made that all decoherence is due to spontaneous emission. We\nanalyze the problem within the formalism of cascaded open quantum systems. Our\nconclusions agree with the Itano proposal. We show that the decoherence,\nnevertheless, may be divided into two parts--that due to forwards scattering\nand to scattering out of the laser mode. Previous authors attribute the former\nto the quantum nature of the laser field.",
