Mean-Field Description of Cooperative Scattering by Atomic Clouds

We present analytic expressions for the scattering of light by an extended atomic cloud. We obtain the solution for the mean-field excitation of different atomic spherical distributions driven by a uniform laser, including the initial build up, the steady state and the decay after the laser is switc...
