Yes. For instance, if your expectation is based on emission from a stationary emitter – then “ rotational superradiance” can alter and concentrate radiation from around the equator of the rapidly spinning emitter while the polar emission will be subradiant. No gain – simply a shift.
The appearance of higher amplitude sound waves could seem, at first, like a path to net gain. Dicke "superradiance is involved as well as Fermi-Pasta-Ulam https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermi%E2%80%93Pasta%E2%80%93Ulam%E2%80%93Tsingou_problem Could this mean that under the right conditions a body could unexpectedly radiate more of its energy in the infrared region?

This happens because the driver`s frequency does not match the natural frequency of the oscillator. Beats will also initially appear in a driven oscillator when a damping force is present but they will fade away quickly. Harry
