This contribution describes new features of the atomic Wehrl entropy in a multi-quanta two-level system in the presence of the Kerr medium. A definition of the atomic Wehrl entropy is presented for this system, based on the atomic Q -function as information measurement about the atomic phase space. The influence of the nonlinear interaction of the Kerr medium, Stark shift, one and two-photon processes and the detuning parameters on the properties of the atomic Wehrl entropy is examined. The atomic Wehrl entropy gives equivalent results to the von Neumann entropy.
