Abstract: t is proved analytically and numerically that, under certain conditions, the reversible spontaneous emission of two-level atoms moving in a high-Q resonator and described quantum-classically can be chaotic in the sense of the exponential sensitivity with respect to the initial conditions. The wavelet analysis of the vacuum Rabi oscillations showed that this chaos is structural. The numerical estimates showed that a Rydberg atom maser with a superconducting microwave resonator operating in a strong coupling mode is a promising device for detecting mani-festations of the dynamic chaos in the reversible spontaneous emission.
