Abstract
Abstract A detailed analysis is provided of a non-Markov model of cavity population in which each emission gives rise to a random dead-time during which no further emissions can take place. Differential equations are derived for the generating functions governing the cavity population size. The moment structure of the population size is examined and explicit expressions for the first two moments are provided. The photon population statistics are shown to be antibunched for a wide choice of the population parameters. The detection process is analysed and an explicit expression is provided for the Hanbury Brown-Twiss type of correlation. It is further shown that an appropriate choice of the population parameters can produce a thermal stream with Lorentzian profile.
