Abstract
We consider the propagation of light in a random medium of two-level atoms. We investigate the dynamics of the field and atomic probability amplitudes for a two-photon state and show that at long times and large distances, the corresponding average probability densities can be determined from the solutions to a system of kinetic equations.Keywords
