Fereshteh Rajabi:Dicke’s Superradiance
Posted: Fri 28 Sep 2018 15:50VIA lecture by Dr.Fereshteh Rajabi "Dicke’s Superradiance -- From millisecond fast radio bursts (FRBs) to multiyear maser bursts" was given on 28.09.2018. PDF of her presentation is attached and the record is in VIA library:

The following questions were put and comments were made in the course of the lecture
Shantanu: what determines the difference between laser and a maser? What governs the wavelength of emission?
J.R. Cudell: should one use asymmetric wave functions for atoms with an odd number of electrons?
Shantanu: what kind of states are these?
Shantanu: states with different n, l, ml, ms? or ciompletely different quantum numbers are used for this?
Shantanu: Just wanted to draw attention to some work done 40 years ago by Larry Mertz who had argued that pulsars are mode locked lasers. Since this is not well known, I will share the reference
