摘要：

The scenario described by the title can be called subradiant emission from a collection of N independent atoms, since only one of N atoms is supposed to be excited. We examine this situation using a quantum electrodynamic Hertz vector approach and use the result to address the directionality of the emission, considering a possible role for atomic entanglement in the multi-atom initial state.
