operating near Dicke's regime of a large number of atoms in a volume with dimensions …

Many-body signatures of collective decay in atomic chains

SJ Masson, I Ferrier-Barbut, LA Orozco, A Browaeys… - Physical review …, 2020 - APS
Fully inverted atoms placed at exactly the same location synchronize as they deexcite, and
light is emitted in a burst (known as “Dicke's superradiance”). We investigate the role of finite …

Superradiance in a large and dilute cloud of cold atoms in the linear-optics regime

MO Araújo, I Krešić, R Kaiser, W Guerin - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
Superradiance has been extensively studied in the 1970s and 1980s in the regime of
superfluorescence, where a large number of atoms are initially excited. Cooperative …
