Abstract
Spectral correlations from theoretical and experimental studies of the fluctuations in the single-shot stimulated Raman scattering spectrum are presented. The coherence-mode representation of the Stokes field is demonstrated as a convenient and somewhat intuitive method of generating ensembles of the fields and spectra. The theory is shown to reproduce the observed spectral fluctuations. In addition, other theoretical approaches are shown to be in agreement with coherence-mode theory.
