Abstract
The statistical properties of light fields which are generated by superposition of laser light and chaotic light are investigated experimentally. The chaotic field is produced by scattering a laser beam at a moving ground-glass screen. The probability densities for the light intensity and their variances are measured and found to be in agreement with theory.Keywords
