Analytic approximate expression for the spectral distribution of the emission from a slab of resonant two-level atoms prepared by an ultrashort δ pulse

Jamal T. Manassah

Using the slowly varying envelope approximation in space and time and the expression for the cooperative Lamb shift, I obtain an approximate analytic expression for the spectral distribution of the radiation from a slab of two atoms that was initially weakly excited by an ultrashort resonant pulse. The closed-form expression obtained reproduces very accurately the numerical exact results computed from the eigenmode analysis for the emission from the front face of the slab.
