Direct single-shot observation of millimeter-wave superradiance in Rydberg-Rydberg transitions

We have directly detected millimeter-wave (mm-wave) free-space superradiant emission from Rydberg states (principal quantum number n∼30) of barium atoms in single-shot experiments. We trigger the cooperative effects with a weak initial pulse and detect the time-dependent amplitude and phase of the e...
