The nonstationary double resonance is numerically simulated in the {Lambda}-scheme of degenerate energy levels with the quantum number J of the total angular momentum equal to 0, 2, and 1. The analysis is performed in the slowly varying envelope approximation taking into account the inhomogeneous broadening of quantum transition lines. In the case of a high-power input low-frequency pulse of long duration with a flat top switched on before the application of a comparatively weak and short input high-frequency pulse and switched off after the end of the latter, a specific pulsed structure, the so-called double adiabaton, can appear. It differs from an adiabaton known from the theory of electromagnetically induced transparency by the decomposition of the high-frequency pulse into two pulses with oppositely directed elliptic polarisations.
