Abstract
We unravel the superradiance master equation into quantum trajectories whos e stochastic wavefunction is conditioned on photon counting records resolve d in photon emission time and direction. Numerical results are reported whi ch illustrate the wealth of statistical information made available by simul ating the counting records. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reser ved.
