We report a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of near-resonance light
scattering from a high-density and ultracold atomic 87 Rb gas. The atomic sample, having a …

Cooperative coupling between optical emitters and light fields is one of the outstanding
goals in quantum technology. It is both fundamentally interesting for the extraordinary …

In this paper, we study cooperative scattering of low intensity light by a cloud of N two-level
systems. We include the incident laser field driving these two-level systems and compute the …

Despite the quantum nature of the process, collective scattering by dense cold samples of
two-level atoms can be interpreted classically describing the sample as a macroscopic …

We experimentally investigate light scattering from a Bose-Einstein condensate which is
positioned inside an optical ring cavity. With a cavity linewidth at the recoil limit, the resulting …

We discuss the role of diffuse, Mie, and cooperative scattering on the radiation pressure
force acting on the center of mass of a cloud of cold atoms. Even though a mean-field ansatz …

Optical binding is a form of light-mediated forces between elements of matter which emerge
in response to the collective scattering of light. Such a phenomenon has been studied …

Matter-wave superradiance is based on the interplay between ultracold atoms coherently
organized in momentum space and a backscattered wave. Here, we show that this …

We report an experimental study of near resonance light scattering on the component of the
line in atomic. Experiments are performed on spatially bi-Gaussian ultracold gas samples …

The momentum of light in a medium and the mechanisms of momentum transfer between
light and dielectrics have long been the topic of controversies and confusion. We discuss …
