In this work, we perform a detailed theoretical and experimental investigation of an atomic memory based on recoil-induced resonance in cold cesium atoms. We consider the interaction nearly degenerate pump probe beams with ensemble two-level A full density matrix calculation extended Hilbert space internal external degrees freedom allows us to obtain, from first principles, transient stationary responses determining transmission forward four-wave-mixing spectra.

The propagation of light that undergoes multiple-scattering by resonant atomic vapor can be described as a L\'evy flight. flight is random walk with heavy tailed step-size (r) distribution, decaying asymptotically $P(r)\sim r^{-1-\alpha}$, $\alpha<2$. large steps, typical flights, have its origins in frequency redistribution the scattered vapor. We calculate function and distribution for diffusion From we extract parameter $\alpha$ depends on step's size. investigate how are influenced...

We investigate the transformation of Rayleigh speckle patterns by an atomic cesium vapor. After propagation through vapor, incident exponentially decaying intensity distribution speckles is transformed with enhancement high intensities probabilities (extreme events). The measured distributions are fitted Weibull distributions. nonlinear interaction between vapor and optical field leads to intensity-dependent refraction absorption, resulting in changes spots' propagation. measure inverse...
L\'evy flight superdiffusion consists of random walks characterized by very long jumps that dominate the transport. However, finite size real samples introduces truncation and modifies transport properties. We measure typical Levy parameters for photon diffusion in atomic vapor a Voigt absorption profile. observe change parameter as function length. associate this variation with size-dependent contributions from different spectral regions emission profile Doppler core dominating thin Lorentz...
The propagation of a photon in an atomic medium can be seen as L\'evy-flight random walk where the probability distribution $P(z)$ for step length $z$ scales with ${z}^{\ensuremath{-}(\ensuremath{\alpha}+1)}$, $0<\ensuremath{\alpha}<2$. In vapors, previous work reported value $\ensuremath{\alpha}$ obtained from direct measurement and also dependence transmission on sample opacity, both Doppler Lorentz profiles. this work, we report Cs cell scaling starting point, i.e., average...

We report on the observation of subharmonic resonances in high-order wave mixing associated with quantized vibrational levels atoms trapped a one-dimensional optical lattice created by two intense nearly counterpropagating coupling beams. These resonances, occurring at $\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}1/2$ and $\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}1/3$ frequency separation between adjacent levels, are observed through phase-match angularly resolved six- eight-wave processes. investigate how these evolve...
