The diffusion of correlation is used to detect, localize, and characterize dynamical and
optical spatial inhomogeneities in turbid media and is accurately modeled by a correlation …

Diffusing photons can be used to detect, localize, and characterize optical and dynamical
spatial inhomogeneities embedded in turbid media. Measurements of the intensity of diffuse …

The review is devoted to theoretical and experimental problems in the study of liquid crystals
by light scattering methods. Nematic, cholesteric, and smectic liquid crystals in the isotropic …

Studies of critical opalescence near phase transitions in different systems are reviewed. The
fundamentals of the modern approach to the description of the propagation and scattering of …

In the last decade diffusing wave spectroscopy (DWS) has emerged as a powerful tool to
study turbid media. In this article we develop the formalism to describe light diffusion in …

We present a rigorous treatment of the diffusion approximation for multiple light scattering in
anisotropic random media, and apply it to director fluctuations in a nematic liquid crystal. For …

We present a detailed theoretical, experimental, and numerical study of light diffusion and
diffusing-wave spectroscopy in nematic liquid crystals. We report on experiments showing …

Asymptotic properties of the Green's function of an electromagnetic field in the far zone of
biaxial anisotropic media are examined, based on ideas proposed by Lax and Nelson [Phys …

Multiple light scattering by director fluctuations in nematic liquid crystals is considered. A
uniform director orientation is assumed to be specified by an applied magnetic field. The …

The contribution to the free energy of distortion of the ferroelectric smectic-C* due to the
electrostatic interaction of polarization charges is calculated. These calculations are …
