Solutions of the Lorentz model: intensity of the cavity mode,
inversion of the medium, modulus squared of the medium polarisation.
Arbitrary units, time in units of the decay time for the inversion.
(left) large pumping rate
(right) smaller pumping rate, just above threshold.
For even smaller rates, the intensity stays zero at all times.
Initial values: medium in ground state, cavity field with
small amplitude. For large pumping, one observes relaxation oscillations
before the system settles into a stationary state.
