Lévy flights of photons with infinite mean free path

Multiple scattering of light by resonant vapor is characterized by Lévy-type superdiffusion with a single-step size distribution \(p(x)\propto 1/x^{1+\alpha}\). We investigate Lévy flight of light in a hot rubidium vapor collisional-broadened by 50 torr of He gas. The frequent collisions produce Lor...

Zusammenfassung:Multiple scattering of light by resonant vapor is characterized by Lévy-type superdiffusion with a single-step size distribution \(p(x)\propto 1/x^{1+\alpha}\). We investigate Lévy flight of light in a hot rubidium vapor collisional-broadened by 50 torr of He gas. The frequent collisions produce Lorentzian absorptive and emissive profiles with \(\alpha
