Light-pulse atom interferometry has become a standard tool for the realization of high-precision experiments and in quantum-sensing applications as well as tests of fundamental physics. Nowadays such interferometers rely on either Raman or Bragg diffraction, realized via a retro-reflective setup with two counter-propagating lasers. In order to analyze this arrangement it is necessary to use numerics on the one hand, and on the other appropriate asymptotic methods. In our poster we showcase an asymptotic approach, the canonical method of averaging which allows us to obtain analytical insights and results which compare well with our purely numerical considerations. Using these methods we analyze the light-shift contribution to the interferometer phase induced by off-resonant two-photon transitions in the presence of the AC-Stark shift and their dependence on the form of the pulse envelope.
