Abstract

Motivated by recent experiments with superradiant Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) we consider simple microscopic models describing rigorously the interference of the two cooperative phenomena, BEC and radiation, in thermodynamic equilibrium. Our resuts in equilibrium confirm the presence of the observed superradiant light scattering from BEC: (a) the equilibrium superradiance exists only below a certain transition temperature; (b) there is superradiance and matter-wave (BEC) enhancement due to the coherent coupling between light and matter.
