Temporal dynamics of Levy flights of photons in a three-dimensional geometry for hot vapor

Ricardo V. M. de Almeida Filho, Joao C. de Aquino Carvalho, Thierry Passerat de Silans +2

Multiple scattering of light by resonant vapor is characterized by Lévy-type superdiffusion with a step size distribution $P(x)\propto 1/x^{1+\alpha }$, with $0<\alpha <2$. The Lévy parame…
