Abstract: | An ensemble of resonance atoms is considered, which are doped into a medium with well developed polariton effect, when in
the spectrum of polariton states there is a band gap. If an atom with a resonance frequency inside the polariton gap is placed
into the medium, the atomic spontaneous emission is suppressed. However, a system of resonance atoms inside the polariton
gap can radiate when their coherent interaction is sufficiently strong. Thus the suppression of spontaneous emission for a
single atom can be overcome by a collective of atoms radiating coherently. Conditions when such collective effects can appear
and their dynamics are analysed.
