note
-
Technically, some of the integration regions in Eq. (14)-(19) violate the condition x-x′ ≫ λ needed for the evaluation of Eq. (A2) and therefore (A3) given in the Appendix to be valid. In view of the alternative approach indicated in the Appendix, however, use of Eq. (A3) seems to be justified for all values of x-x′.

See Ref. 3, Sec. 30-7. Physically this term is due to scattering contributions at x approaching infinity. The term disappears if we take into account that the light was turned on in the distant past or we account for a small loss in the material. The problem can be mathematically handled by introducing an attenuation term exp(-εx) in the integral where ε can be taken arbitrarily small but finite. See also the notes in Ref. 5.

in the evaluation of this integral we obtain a value that is formally equal to ∞ exp(/∞). Again this term disappears for realistic physical situations using the reasoning in Ref. 10.

Quantum theory of an atom near partially reflecting walls
-
R. J. Cook and P. W. Milonni, "Quantum theory of an atom near partially reflecting walls," Phys. Rev. A 35(12) 5081-5087 (1987). In this article the interaction between a single atom and a layer of atoms is obtained by starting from the Schrödinger equation. The treatment is limited to one dimension and single backscattering events. As the material of the present article is basically concerned with the contributions of multiscattering in three dimension, the combination will yield a fully quantum mechanical description, including source-related effects.

Reference 3, Sec. 30-7. In the case of "scalar" dipole scattering, f(θ) = cos θ. In reality, polarization effects will result in a somewhat steeper decay to 0 as θ approaches 90 deg. In any case the effect of f(θ) is to taper off the contributions to the integral for large values of r, as discussed in Ref. 3.
