Fluid description of the cooperative scattering of light by spherical atomic clouds
N. Piovella, R. Bachelard, Ph. W. Courteille
When a cold atomic gas is illuminated by a quasi-resonant laser beam, light-induced dipole-dipole correlations make the scattering of light a cooperative process. Once a fluid desc…

Microscopic theory of photonic band gaps in optical lattices
M. Samoylova, N. Piovella, R. Bachelard +1
We propose a microscopic model to describe the scattering of light by atoms in optical lattices. The model is shown to efficiently capture Bragg scattering, spontaneous emission an…
