Abstract:

Much of the existing literature on theory of light scattering from fluctuating media is restricted to either monochromatic incident fields, or to quasimonochromatic incident fields which are spatially coherent over the entire scattering volume. This reprint presents a theory of light scattering from fluctuating media which allows the spectrum and the coherence properties of the incident light to be very general, and which makes less restrictive assumptions about the response of the scattering medium than the usual theories. A fuller version of this work will appear elsewhere.
