| Popis: | The propagation of a Gaussian pulse in an inhomogeneous medium is considered. The detected pulse is represented as a series in the scattering multiplicities. The developed approach enables one to describe the passage of a pulse through a randomly inhomogeneous medium in the general case, beyond the framework of the diffusion approximation. The known results of the diffusion approximation are shown to represent limiting cases of the expansion constructed in the scattering multiplicities. The calculations are performed by the Monte Carlo method for cases of singly and multiply scattering media. The agreement between the results of the theoretical analysis and the numerical simulation allows one to use the approach developed in both optical problems and investigation of propagation of waves of other nature, in particular, seismic waves. |
