Intensity Correlations and Mesoscopic Fluctuations of Diffusing Photons in Cold Atoms
We study the angular correlation function of speckle patterns that result from multiple scattering of photons by cold atomic clouds. We show that this correlation function becomes larger than the value given by Rayleigh law for classical scatterers. These large intensity fluctuations constitute a new mesoscopic effect specific to atom-photon …
