Intensity interference in Bragg scattering by acoustic waves with thermal statistics.

TLDR
In the case when the beam diameter exceeds the coherence length of the acoustic wave, the fourth-order correlation function is found to contain an interference structure, whereas the intensity angular distribution has a one-peak shape.
Abstract
Angular distributions of the intensity and the fourth-order correlation function are studied for light scattered by acoustic waves with thermal statistics. In the case when the beam diameter exceeds the coherence length of the acoustic wave, the fourth-order correlation function is found to contain an interference structure, whereas the intensity angular distribution has a one-peak shape. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.

Study of higher order correlation functions and photon statistics using multiphoton-subtracted states and quadrature measurements

TL;DR: In this article, the problem of high order correlation function values is reduced to the preparation and measurement of optical quantum states resulting after annihilation of a set number of quanta from the original beam.

Superbunched light in a feedback loop with random properties

TL;DR: In this paper, the statistical properties of light in a novel type of electrooptic feedback loop are studied both theoretically and experimentally, where the feedback under consideration is closed via the photodetector shot-noise and has, therefore, a random character.
