Abstract

An angular distribution of the intensity of light scattered from an optically dense cold atomic ensemble placed into homogeneous static electric or magnetic field is calculated. Partial contributions of different orders of scattering into the selected polarization component of total intensity of the secondary radiation are analyzed. It is demonstrated that static fields make the medium anisotropic, which results in changes in both an angular distribution of such a radiation and relative contributions of different orders of scattering.
