- Abstract: We investigate the properties of the cooperative decay modes of a cold atomic
cloud, characterized by a Gaussian distribution in three dimensions, initially
excited by a laser in the linear regime. We study the properties of the decay
rate matrix $S$, whose dimension coincides with the number of atoms in the
cloud, in order to get a deeper insight into properties of cooperative photon
emission. Since the atomic positions are random, $S$ is a Euclidean random
matrix whose entries are function of the atom distances. We show that, in the
limit of a large number of atoms in the cloud, the eigenvalue distribution of
$S$ depends on a single parameter $b_0$, called the cooperativeness parameter,
which can be viewed as a quantifier of the number of atoms that are coherently
involved in an emission process. For very small values of $b_0$, we find that
the limit eigenvalue density is approximately triangular. We also study the
nearest-neighbour spacing distribution and the eigenvector statistics, finding
that, although the decay rate matrices are Euclidean, the bulk of their spectra
mostly behaves according to the expectations of classical random matrix theory.
In particular, in the bulk there is level repulsion and the eigenvectors are
delocalized, therefore exhibiting the universal behaviour of chaotic quantum
systems.

What properties of a multi-mode Gaussian state are determined by the signal from one detector that measures total number photons up to some bound?
We find that if the Gaussian state occupies $S$ modes and the probabilities of $n$ photons for all $nleq 8S$ are known, then we can determine the spectrum of the Gaussian covariance matrix.
Nothing more can be learned, even if all photon-number probabilities are known.

Ordered atomic arrays with subwavelength lattice spacing emit light collectively.
For fully inverted atomic arrays, this results in an initial burst of radiation and a fast build up of coherences between the atoms at initial times.
We benchmark the cumulant expansion approach and show that it correctly captures the cooperative dynamics resulting in superradiance.

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.
