Abstract
The collective interaction of N identical two-level atoms with a quant um electromagnetic field in a perfect cavity is considered. It is show n that the initial atomic state coherence introduces some coherent fea tures in the dynamics of the initially thermal field. Namely, it leads to well separated thermal revivals and causes a narrowing of the phot on distribution.
