| Popis: | The behavior of spins undergoing Lamor precession in the presence of time varying fields is of interest to many research fields. The frequency shifts and relaxation resulting from these fields are related to their power spectrum and can be determined from the Fourier Transform of the auto-correlation functions of the time varying field. Using the method of images [C. M. Swank, A. K. Petukhov, and R. Golub, Phys. Lett. A 376, 2319 (2012)] calculated the position-position auto-correlation function for particles moving in a rectangular cell with specular scattering walls. In this work we present a heuristic model that extends this work to the case of Lambert scattering walls. The results of this model are compared to simulation and show good agreement from the ballistic to diffusive regime of gas collisions, for both square and general rectangular cells. This model requires three parameters, two of which describe the distribution of images in the case of a square cell, and one of which describes the asymmetry in the mixing of the x and y components of the velocity in the case of non-square rectangular cells.
