Scattering of scalar light fields from collections of particles

Polarization-induced coherence changes and conditions for the invariance of the spectral degree of coherence produced by an electromagnetic wave scattering on a collection of particles

“…Assuming that the medium is so weak that the scattering can be analyzed within the accuracy of the first-order Born approximation, the generalized pair-structure and the correlation function of the scattering potential take the forms [2,3]:…”

“…For a description of scattering from a random medium, the spectral pair-scattering matrix should be employed [3] …”

“…The scattering theory has been generalized to the stochastic scalar fields [2]. Later a novel model dealing with the scattered light of scalar fields from collections of particles was set up [3]. After that, the effect of the pair-structure factor of the particulate medium on the scattering properties was analyzed [4], which was based on the scalar theory and imposed serious limitations on the applicability of the results.…”

Condition for invariant spectral degree of coherence of an electromagnetic plane wave on scattering

“…(3) and utilizing relations of Eqs. (10) and (11), the cross-spectral density matrix for the scattered light can be obtained. By observing Eq.…”

“…Inversely scattering problem induced by correlation properties has also been solved [9]. Besides, a novel model dealing with the scattered light of scalar fields from collections of particles has been set up [10]. The effect of pair-structure factor of particulate medium on scattering properties has also been analyzed [11,12].…”
