从主要理论角度回顾了冷、光密和无序原子系统的光散射中表现出的相干效应。然后通过几个基于物理原子物理的过程来详细阐述基本理论工具的开发，这些过程至少部分地经过实验探索。其中包括从相干反向散射效应、原子气体中的随机激光、量子存储器和光捕获机制辅助的光原子界面中得出的插图。还详细讨论了与散射过程中向高原子密度和协同性过渡相关的当前理解和挑战。
Coherent effects manifested in light scattering from cold, optically dense and disordered atomic systems are reviewed from a primarily theoretical point of view. Development of the basic theoretical tools is then elaborated through several physical atomic physics based processes which have been at least partly explored experimentally. These include illustrations drawn from the coherent backscattering effect, random lasing in atomic gases, quantum memories and light-atoms interface assisted by the light trapping mechanism. Current understanding and challenges associated with the transition to high atomic densities and cooperativity in the scattering process are also discussed in some detail.
