Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

Abstract

An equation is derived for the propagation of the autocorrelation function of radiant intensity in an optically thick layer of discrete scatterers with a prolate indicatrix. An effective method for its numerical solution is constructed. The autocorrelation function is computed for the light intensity in a medium containing large absorbing and scattering particles. Comparisons are made with known theoretical and experimental results.
