    "abstract": "We consider one source of decoherence for a single trapped ion due to\nintensity and phase fluctuations in the exciting laser pulses. For simplicity\nwe assume that the stochastic processes involved are white noise processes,\nwhich enables us to give a simple master equation description of this source of\ndecoherence. This master equation is averaged over the noise, and is sufficient\nto describe the results of experiments that probe the oscillations in the\nelectronic populations as energy is exchanged between the internal and\nelectronic motion. Our results are in good qualitative agreement with recent\nexperiments and predict that the decoherence rate will depend on vibrational\nquantum number in different ways depending on which vibrational excitation\nsideband is used.",
