    "abstract": "The mediated photon-photon interaction due to the resonant Kerr nonlinearity\nin an inhomogeneously broadened atomic vapor is considered. The time-scale for\nphoton-photon scattering is computed and found to be determined by the\ninhomogeneous broadening and the magnitude of the momentum transfer. This time\ncan be shorter than the atomic relaxation time. Effects of atom statistics are\nincluded and the special case of small-angle scattering is considered. In the\nlatter case the time-scale of the nonlinear response remains fast, even though\nthe linear response slows as the inverse of the momentum transfer.",
