Abstract
Moving speckle phenomena produced in the presence of wavefront curvature when laser light is scattered by an assembly of uniformly moving target centres are investigated. The first- and second-order space-time correlation functions of the scattered radiation are calculated and it is shown that the conditions for cross-spectral purity are not satisfied. It is pointed out that the effects offer a means of measurement of the velocity of the scatterers.
