Direct and Inverse Problems in Statistical Wavefields
Abstract
This is a summary of the research completed under AASERT grant F49620-97-1-0482, during the period September 1, 1997 to August 31, 2000. Not long ago it was shown that the spectrum of light scattered off of a system of particles will be altered by the spatial correlation properties of the particle system. Such a result implies that the spectral changes of the scattered light contains information about the structure of the particle system. We have since demonstrated that the spectral information can be used in the inverse problem of particle-system structure to drastically reduce the amount of data required for inversion, by substituting spectral measurements for measurements in different directions. These results were presented at the 1999 Optical Society of America Annual Meeting in Santa Clara, California.
