First- and second-order coherence of scattered laser light from a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate
First- and second-order coherence of scattered laser light from a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate
The second-order coherence of photons scattered from a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate is found to be enhanced for the scattering angles that are either the same or symmetrical with respect to the direction of laser propagation. The enhancement occurs periodically with respect to the time interval between photons, and becomes less …
