Lau effect: theory and experiment

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

It was recently shown that coherence theory provides a simple and elegant means of interpreting and extending the Lau effect. The details of this analysis are presented along with experimental results which show good qualitative agreement with the predicted intensity distributions. In addition an unexpected intensity modulation is observed which is readily explained in terms of the present analysis.
