Abstract
Second‐ and fourth‐order statistical properties of radiation scattered by particles in a turbulent fluid are theoretically investigated. They turn out to be of a non‐Gaussian type so that the measurements of the statistics of the scattered field can furnish information not obtainable by means of a spectrum analysis. In particular, our results are related with the possibility of measuring a Lagrangian type of velocity correlation function, generalized to different fluid elements.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
