We study coherent backscattering of a quasi-monochromatic laser by a dilute gas of cold two-level atoms. We consider the perturbative regime of weak intensities, where nonlinear effects arise from {em inelastic} two-photon scattering processes. Here, coherent backscattering can be formed by interference between {em three} different scattering amplitudes. Consequently, if elastically scattered photons are filtered out from the photodetection signal by means of suitable frequency-selective detection, we find the nonlinear backscattering enhancement factor to exceed the linear barrier two.
Light propagating in an optically thick sample experiences multiple scattering. It is now known that interferences alter this propagation, leading to an enhanced backscattering, a manifestation of weak localization of light in such diffuse samples. T
We study phase transitions in a lattice of square-arranged driven-dissipative polariton condensates with nearest-neighbour coupling. Simulating the polarization (spin) dynamics of the polariton lattice, we observe regions of qualitatively different s
A lattice of locally bistable driven-dissipative cavity polaritons is found theoretically to effectively simulate the Ising model, also enabling an effective transverse field. We benchmark the system performance for spin glass problems, and study the
We show that, in a many-body system, all particles can be strongly confined to the initially occupied sites for a time that scales as a high power of the ratio of the bandwidth of site energies to the hopping amplitude. Such time-domain formulation i
The study of granular crystals, metamaterials that consist of closely packed arrays of particles that interact elastically, is a vibrant area of research that combines ideas from disciplines such as materials science, nonlinear dynamics, and condense
