We show that the Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser technique performs better owing to both the superexponential character of correction terms and the possibility to optimize the accuracy of a given level of approximation which is explored in details here. As an illustration, we consider a two-level system driven by short pulses beyond the sudden limit.15 pages, 5 color figuresQuantum PhysicsPulse-driven quantum dynamics beyond the impulsive regimetext
