* the "↓" state after {{math|''T''<sub>1</sub>}}.
In the [[Schrödinger picture]], we will always see some [[quantum superposition|superposed]] state with the ↑ amplitude gradually decreasing and ↓ amplitude increasing. More general, the moment of a transition is always [[uncertainty principle|uncertain]], and speculation such as "transition started at… and ended at…" do not have a sense.

:The moment (on the time scale) of a transition is uncertain (Poissonian statistics for a single atom/ion). Nevertheless the time for a transition (jump) is always shorter then statistical period of jumping cycle (interval between jumps) - obtained from [[density matrix]] ("superposition"). You can see (experimental - not speculation) it in wiki reference[http://www.mpq.mpg.de/Theorygroup/CIRAC/wiki/images/8/86/Samuel.pdf] (page 3).
