When a single photon traverses a cloud of 2-level atoms, the average time it spends as an atomic excitation -- as measured by weakly probing the atoms -- can be shown to be the spontaneous lifetime of the atoms multiplied by the probability…
We develop the analytical theory that describes simultaneous transmission of several photons through a waveguide coupled to a $\Lambda$-type atom. We show that after transmission of a short few-photon pulse, the final state of the atom and…
