IDA Gamma-Ray Laser Annual Report (1993)
Abstract
This document consists of a collection of papers published in the open literature in FY 1993. The first paper was published in Phys. Rev. B and describes the limitations of the Bonifacio-Lugiato model of superfluorescence. The second paper deals with the feasibility of nuclear superfluorescence. It was presented at the Lasers '92 Conference in Houston and published in the Proceedings. Paper Number 3 describes a nuclear superfluorescence model. It was presented at the Physics in Ukraine Conference in Kiev in June 1993 and published in the Proceedings. Paper Number 4 is a comment on a paper published in Phys. Rev. B, which we found to be wrong and which stated a misleading conclusion regarding the effect of homogeneous broadening on an inhomogeneously broadened system. Our comment is followed by the author's reply, which was also published in the Comments section of Phys. Rev. B. We include our response to the author's reply.
