Popis: | The time correlation function of light reflected diffusely from a semi-infinite randomly inhomogeneous medium is calculated with allowance for the acceleration of the scatterers in the field of the laser beam incident on the medium. An analytical expression is found for the characteristic coherence time due to the ponderomotive action of light. It is shown that even with laser radiation power densities of the order of 1–10 W laser-acceleration effects substantially alter the character of the time autocorrelation function of the scattered light and must be taken into account in theoretical calculations. |
