Intensity correlation functions and fluctuations in light scattered from a random medium
Abstract
The propagation of light in a disordered medium with purely elastic scattering is considered. The intensity correlation functions for the diffusely reflected and transmitted light from a slab are shown to have long-range power-law behavior. This arises from the interference of the underlying wave fields of the diffusive modes of the light intensity. This interference also gives rise to anomalous fluctuations in the transmission coefficient analogous to conductance fluctuations in metals.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
