Single scattering estimates for the scintillation function of waves in random media
The energy density of high frequency waves propagating in highly oscillatory random media is well approximated by solutions of deterministic kinetic models. The scintillation function determines the statistical instability of the kinetic solution. This paper analyzes the single scattering term in the scintillation function. This is the term of the scintillation function that is linear in the po...
متن کاملSelf-averaged Scaling Limits for Random Parabolic Waves
We consider several types of scaling limits for the Wigner-Moyal equation of the parabolic waves in random media, the limiting cases of which include the radiative transfer limit, the diffusion limit and the white-noise limit. We show under fairly general assumptions on the random refractive index field that sufficient amount of medium diversity (thus excluding the white-noise limit) leads to s...
متن کاملUnified kinetic formulation of incoherent waves propagating in nonlinear media with noninstantaneous response
This article presents a unified kinetic formulation of partially coherent nonlinear optical waves propagating in a noninstantaneous response Kerr medium. We derive a kinetic equation that combines the weak Langmuir turbulence kinetic equation and a Vlasov-like equation within a general framework: It describes the evolution of the spectrum of a random field that exhibits a quasistationary statis...
متن کاملSelf-averaging of kinetic models for waves in random media
Kinetic equations are often appropriate to model the energy density of high frequency waves propagating in highly heterogeneous media. The limitations of the kinetic model are quantified by the statistical instability of the wave energy density, i.e., by its sensitivity to changes in the realization of the underlying heterogeneous medium modeled as a randommedium. In the simplified Itô-Schrödin...
متن کاملSelf-Averaging Scaling Limits for Random Parabolic Waves
We consider several types of scaling limits for the Wigner-Moyal equation of the parabolic waves in random media, the limiting cases of which include the standard radiative transfer limit, the geometrical-optics limit and the white-noise limit. We show under fairly general assumptions on the random refractive index field that sufficient amount of medium diversity (thus excluding the white-noise...
