Description

We report on super-radiance-cascades and multimode super-radiance in a cold Rydberg gas. Correctly matching the super-radiant radiation and the sample size, or mode-matching, is discussed. In addition, it is shown that the spontaneous emission rate and density determine how fast super-radiance happens and whether or not the multimode super-radiance is observable. The results reported here are essential steps toward super-radiance induced plasma formation and two-photon correlations. (author)
