Abstract. Self-organization effects related to light amplification in a collective atomic recoil laser system with the driven atoms confined in a harmonic trap are investigated further. In the dispersive parametric region, our study reveals that the spontaneously formed structures in the phase space contribute an important role in the light amplification of the probe field with the atomic motion being modified by the trap.
