Correlation properties of electromagnetic field generated by emitters with random orientation

Abstract

The necessity of more thorough description of electromagnetic field is substantiated for the problems of quantum optics. An attempt to construct the correlation functions of emission generated by a superfluorescent system of Dicke type is done. Operator evolution equations for a system of two-level emitters interacting with electromagnetic field lead to quantum analogues of Maxwell equations. Reduced description method applied to the superfluorescent process allows to find parameters characterizing the field fluctuations and some generalizations of matter equations.
