We generalize the theoretical modeling of collective atomic super- and subradiance to the multilevel case including spontaneous emission from several excited states towards a common ground state. We show that in a closely packed ensemble of…
In a recent experiment (N. Wagner et al., PNAS v103, p13279) on SF$_{6}$, a high-harmonic generating laser pulse is preceded by a pump pulse which stimulates Raman-active modes in the molecule. Varying the time delay between the two pulses…
The effect of collectivity on the loading of an atom laser via optical pumping is discussed. In our model, atoms in a beam are laser-excited and subsequently spontaneously decay into a trapping state. We consider the case of sufficiently…

Superradiant decay is accompanied by two kinds of collective lineshifts, an induced shift and the spontaneous "collective Lamb shift." Both form as sum of dipole-dipole interaction-induced level shifts between atoms in the system. We have…
