Abstract
We calculate the intensity-field correlations in the light scattered by N cold atoms driven by a quasi-resonant laser field. Fundamental differences occur if the atomic state is an entangled single-excitation state or a coherent factorized state. We provide analytic expressions for the two-time field and intensity correlation functions for the timed Dicke state and the quasi-Bloch state. The comparison with multi-atom simulations shows good agreement between numerical and analytic solutions.
