Elastic vs. inelastic coherent backscattering of laser light by cold
atoms: a master equation treatment
Vyacheslav Shatokhin, Cord A. Müller, Andreas Buchleitner
abstract: We give a detailed derivation of the master equation description of the
coherent backscattering of laser light by cold atoms. In particular, our
formalism accounts for the nonperturbative nonlinear response of the atoms when
the injected intensity saturates the atomic transition. Explicit expressions
are given for total and elastic backscattering intensities in the different
polarization channels, for the simplest nontrivial multiple scattering scenario
of intense laser light multiply scattering from two randomly placed atoms.
