Statistical characteristics of the spatial structure of scattered radiation

  • Published:
Soviet Physics Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

Experimental results are given on the statistical characteristics of the spatial structure of scattered radiation as a function of the optical thickness and the number of scatterers. It is shown that the dispersion of the intensity fluctuations decreases with increase in the particle concentration in the scattering volume, and the correlation radius increases with increase in optical thickness. The dependence of the intensity-fluctuation dispersion on the scattering angle is obtained.
