Iglesias et al. (2002) showed that the Rayleigh scattering from helium atoms decreases by collective effects in the atmospheres of cool white dwarf stars. Their study is here extended to consider an accurate evaluation of the atomic…
We theoretically and computationally investigate the behavior of infinite atom arrays when illuminated by nearly resonant light. We use higher order mean field equations to investigate the coherent reflection and transmission and incoherent…
Chirped coherent Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering (CRBS) is a flow diagnostic technique that offers high signal-to-noise ratios and nanosecond temporal resolution. To extract information of dilute gas flow, experimental spectra must be…
Imaging surfaces using low energy neutral atom scattering is a relatively recent development in the field of microscopy. In this work we demonstrate that this technique is sensitive enough to distinguish films as thin as a single monolayer…
Rayleigh scattering is a result of an interaction of photons with bound electrons. Rayleigh scattering is mostly neglected in calculations of hot star model atmospheres because most of the hydrogen atoms are ionized and the heavier elements…
Bragg scattering with linearly polarized light can be used to separately measure the density and the spin structure factor of a two spin component atomic gas by looking at the dependance of the scattering intensity on the polarization of…
Rydberg spectral lines of an atom are sometimes superimposed on the continuous spectrum of a different configuration. Effects of interaction among different configurations in one of these cases are theoretically investigated, and a formula…
We present a single-scattering formalism for incoherent resonant light scattering by dilute quantum gas systems such as the atomic-trap Bose-Einstein condensates. We show that resonant scattering gives access to more information than the…
The angular intensity distribution of He beams scattered from compact clusters and from diffusion limited aggregates, epitaxially grown on metal surfaces, is investigated theoretically. The purpose is twofold: to distinguish compact cluster…
We show that a new interference effect appears in the intensity fluctuations of photons multiply scattered by an atomic gas of large optical depth b. This interference occurs only for scattering atoms that are Zeeman degenerate and it leads…
Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering spectra of CO$_2$ were measured at pressures ranging from 0.5 to 4~bar, and temperatures from 257 to 355~K using green laser light (wavelength 532~nm, scattering angle of 55.7$^\circ$). These spectra were…
The process of the elastic scattering of photons on atoms, known as the Rayleigh scattering, is investigated. Expressing the scattering observables in terms of the electric and magnetic complex scattering amplitudes, we work over the…
Scattering of resonant radiation in a dense two-level medium is studied theoretically with account for local field effects and renormalization of the resonance frequency. Intrinsic optical bistability is viewed as switching between…
Brillouin scattering of photons off the density fluctuations in a fluid is potentially important for cosmology. We derive the Brillouin spectral distortion of blackbody radiation, and discuss the possible implications for the cosmic…
We investigate hitherto unexplored regimes of probe scattering by atoms trapped in optical lattices: weak scattering by effectively random atomic density distributions and multiple scattering by arbitrary atomic distributions. Both regimes…

We present an analysis of the influence of spin wave dispersion relations and profiles on microfocused Brillouin Light Scattering spectra. Three archetypal magnetic materials are reported: a 51-nm thick Bi-substituted YIG, a 25-nm thick…
We study the angular correlation function of speckle patterns that result from multiple scattering of photons by cold atomic clouds. We show that this correlation function becomes larger than the value given by Rayleigh law for classical…
We study coherent backscattering of a monochromatic laser by a dilute gas of cold two-level atoms in the weakly nonlinear regime. The nonlinear response of the atoms results in a modification of both the average field propagation (nonlinear…
We report enhanced transmission in measurements of the spectral dependence of forward light scattering by a high-density and cold ensemble of 87Rb atoms. This phenomenon, which is a result of dipole-dipole interaction induced cooperative…
