    Calculating Optical Cycles in Ultrashort Pulses

    If an ultrashort optical pulse has a complex wavefunction with central frequency corresponding to a wavelength = 585 nm and a Gaussian envelope of RMS width of 6 femtoseconds, how can I calculate how many optical cycles are contained in the pulse width? Homework Equations The Attempt...
