Abstract :
Simple stability conditions are obtained for pulse propagation in a two-level system with linear scattering and combined homogeneous and inhomogeneous broadening. Properties of steady-state π and 
area pulses are reviewed. Computer simulation of an approach to equilibrium pulse propagation is presented in a few cases for initially perturbed pulses.
