Abstract
We have performed numerical nonperturbative simulations of transient absorption pump-probe responses for a series of molecular model systems. The resulting signals as a function of the laser field strength and the pump-probe delay time are compared with those obtained in the perturbative response function formalism. The simulations and their theoretical analysis indicate that the perturbative description remains valid up to moderately strong laser pulses, corresponding to a rather substantial depopulation (population) of the initial (final) electronic states.
