Abstract

The intensity pattern generated by a monochromatic point source in a random medium is studied. The intensity-intensity correlation function is calculated and it is shown that the intensity, as a function of coordinate, exhibits large fluctuations (the speckle pattern). The sensitivity of this speckle pattern to small changes in the source frequency is also studied.
