Cooperative light scattering on an atomic system with degenerate structure of the ground state

Abstract

We present here a microscopic analysis of the cooperative light scattering on an atomic system consisting of Λ-type configured atoms with the spin-degenerate ground state. The results are compared with a similar system consisting of standard "two-level" atoms of the Dicke model. We discuss advantages of the considered system in context of its possible implications for light storage in a macroscopic ensemble of dense and ultracold atoms.
