Collectively enhanced quantum light-matter interactions

In this thesis, we investigate dynamics of many-body atomic systems coupled to electromagnetic fields. We find that collective effects present in cavity-mediated laser cooling and high temperatures of bubble in sonoluminescence can be explained using a two-stage model which combines quantum-optical...
