Bose-Einstein Partition Statistics in Superradiant Spontaneous Emission
Paolo Mataloni, Elisabetta De Angelis, F. De Martini · Physical Review Letters · 2000
We report the realization of the spatial counterpart of the Dicke superradiance. The new process is revealed by the realization of the spatial quantum partition statistics within the detection of photons emitted in sub-Poissonian regime by an active microcavity excited by ultrashort pulses. The superradiant enhancement of the time decay of the dipole excitation has also been investigated.
