  1. Energy Level diagram for n- 2 level atoms

  2. Interaction with Radiation field Radiation from an Extended Sample Raise Energy level Destroy photon

  3. By some sort of change in basis: Radiation from an Extended Sample

  4. “Spin” operators are the same as before Absorption or emission of a photon with momentum k, Radiation Rate in k direction:

  5. Non-linear Rayleigh scattering/superradiance Collective scattering: Dicke superradiance Rayleigh: Inouye et al., Science (1998)

  6. Non-linear Rayleigh scattering/superradiance Recoiling atoms interfere with stationary atoms to form a diffraction grating, which then enhances scattering into that mode The Scattered Power

  7. Dicke’s Superradiance?

  8. Non-linear Rayleigh scattering/superradiance Dipolar emission pattern radiates weakly along polarization axis, collective scattering is stronger along long axis I ~ 1-100mW/cm^2 t~ 50 ms Normal decay of atoms Superradiant decay of atoms
