Selective excitation of subwavelength atomic clouds
A dense cloud of atoms with randomly changing positions exhibits coherent and incoherent scattering. We show that an atomic cloud of subwavelength dimensions can be modeled as a single scatterer where both coherent and incoherent components of the scattered photons can be fully explained based on ef...
