Superradiance
Superradiance is a quantum phenomenon where a group of excited particles, such as atoms or molecules, can collectively emit energy more efficiently than they would individually. This process occurs when these particles are in a coherent state, allowing them to synchronize their emissions, resulting in a burst of radiation that is stronger than expected.
This effect is often studied in the context of quantum optics and has implications for various fields, including laser technology and astrophysics. In astrophysics, superradiance can occur near black holes, where it may influence the behavior of surrounding matter and radiation.
