Photon statistics of the fluorescence of collectively interacting atoms
Benno H. W. Hendriks, Gerard Nienhuis · Journal of Physics B Atomic Molecular and Optical Physics · 1990
The authors present a general formalism for describing the photon statistics of the atomic fluorescence of driven collectively interacting N-atom systems. The formalism is applied in several special cases to obtain explicit results for the k-fold intensity correlation functions. The authors find that collective interactions diminish the non-classical properties of the emitted radiation.
