Abstract

Simulating photon dynamics in strong light-matter coupling situations via classical trajectories is proving to be powerful and practical. Here we analyze the performance of the approach through the lens of the exact factorization approach. Since the exact factorization enables a rigorous definition of the potentials driving the photonic motion it allows us to identify that the cause of the underestimation of photon number and intensities observed in earlier work is primarily due to an inadequate accounting of light-matter correlation in the classical Ehrenfest force rather than errors from treating the photons quasiclassically per se. The latter becomes problematic when the number of photons per mode begins to exceed a half.
