Cooperative Spontaneous Emission and Scattering of Light by Ensembles of Atoms

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

The spontaneous emission of light by groupings of identical atoms is a collective process that takes place only in certain favored radiation modes. These have in general a variety of different lifetimes that obey an interesting sum rule and correspondingly different spectral widths and frequency shifts. The light that these atoms scatter resonantly also reflects this complex structure. Article not available.
