Description

Stimulated emission of two-level atoms in a high-Q cavity is considered under conditions when pumping produces correlated many-atomic states. Based on the many-body problem, a kinetic equation is obtained for the Glauber-Sudarshan probability, which describes the field in the Fokker-Planck approximation. The statistics of light in this approximation are determined by the atomic correlation functions of the order of no higher than the second. The noise of light is found in the regime of micromaser operation for two types of pumping producing the initial separable states with a classical correlation and entangled states. It is shown that the presence of the initial diatomic correlation enhances the intensity noise. The entangled state of atoms is found from which nonclassical light is generated with a steady-state phase and noise, which can be almost completely suppressed in the low-frequency spectral region
