It is known since the beginning of the 20th century that any medium shows a birefringence in the presence of atransverse magnetic field. This birefringence is usually known as the Cotton-Mouton effect. Concerning vacuum, whereas no non-linear effect is possible in the framework of classical physics due to the linearity of Maxwell's equations,...

Diffusing-wave spectroscopy is a powerful technique which consists in measuring the temporal correlation function of the intensity of light multiply scattered by a medium. In this paper, we apply this technique to cold atoms under purely ballistic motion and we investigate the transition between the single and the multiple scattering regime....

Noise measurement is a powerful tool to investigate many phenomena from laser characterization to quantum behavior of light. In this paper, we report on intensity noise measurements obtained when a laser beam is transmitted through a large cloud of cold atoms. While this measurement could possibly investigate complex processes such as the...

In this paper, we measure the spectrum of light scattered by a cold atomic cloud driven by a strong laser beam. The experimental technique is based on heterodyne spectroscopy coupled to single-photon detectors and intensity correlations. At resonance, we observe the Mollow triplet. This spectrum is quantitatively compared to the theoretical...
