Multiple scattering of light by atoms in the weak localization regime

Coherent backscattering is a multiple scattering interference effect which enhances the diffuse reflection off a disordered sample in the backward direction. Classically, the enhanced intensity is twice the average background under well chosen experimental conditions. We show how the quantum internal structure of atomic scatterers leads to a significantly smaller enhancement. Theoretical results for double scattering in the weak localization regime are presented which confirm recent experimental observations.

Mesenteric cysts are a rare cause of disease. In our hospital we treated one patient who suffered from bilateral ureteral obstruction followed by hydronephrosis, caused by a large mesenteric cyst. Because of its extent complete enucleation--the surgical procedure of choice--was not possible. We opened the cyst and made an external percutaneous drainage. After this treatment the patient recovered and even after 6 months there was no recurrence.
