Resumo

A formalism is developed to calculate radiative processes, and applied to the shift of resonance frequency due to the radiation field itself. The zeroth approximation gives the Bohr resonance condition, while the next approximation gives a shift proportional to the photon density. The first-order shift is made of two terms: electric and magnetic. They can be interpreted as second-order Stark effect and Zeeman effect due to the oscillating field, respectively. A comparison with experimental data on the Cs atom is made. A good agreement is obtained by choosing the value of parameters suitably. These values of parameters can be checked by a future experiment.
