• Abstract: ${}^{133}\mathrm{Ba}^+$ is illuminated by a laser that is far-detuned from optical transitions, and the resulting spontaneous Raman scattering rate is measured. The observed scattering rate is lower than previous theoretical estimates. The majority of the discrepancy is explained by a more accurate treatment of the scattered photon density of states. This work establishes that, contrary to previous models, there is no fundamental limit to laser-driven quantum gates from laser-induced spontaneous Raman scattering.

  We present the first statistically and kinematically precise experimental data for triple Compton scattering of such entangled $gamma$. The measured $R$, deconvolved from multiple scattering backgrounds, are found to exceed the classical limit for intermediate scatter angles up to $sim$60$circ$ and diminish at larger angles. The results are crucial to future study and utilisation of entangled mega-electron-volt $gamma$ in fundamental physics and PET imaging.

  No class-B quantum density-matrix model is available to date, capable of accurately describing coherence and photon correlations within a unified theory. Here we carry out a density-matrix theoretical approach for generic class-B lasers, and provide closed equations for the photonic and atomic reduced density matrix in the Fock basis of photons. This model enables the study of few-photon bifurcations and non-classical photon correlations in class-B laser devices, also leveraging quantum descriptions of coherently coupled nanolaser arrays.
