N scaling of large-sample collective decay in inhomogeneous ensembles
We experimentally study collective decay of an extended disordered ensemble of N atoms inside a hollow-core fiber. We observe up to 300-fold enhanced decay rates, strong optical bursts, and a coherent ringing. Due to inhomogeneities limiting the synchronization of atoms, the data does not show the t...
