TY - JOUR AU - Volkov, S. AB - aging of the characteristics of the scattered field over a circle relative to the axis of the radiation beam is equivalent to averaging at a given point of space when the given reali- zation of the scattering medium is rotated. At large scattering angles, when the order of the beam diffraction is large, ~ ~ f , the phases of the fields from individual inhomogenei- ties will be uniformly distributed, with the exception of the inhomogeneities in the central region of the beam, where ~ I . At a large number of inhomogeneities in the beam, the con- tribution from the central region is relatively small, of the order of ~-z. As a result, the Rayleigh model will be valid for the resultant field, just as in averaging over the en- semble. For radiation beams of different shape, the spatial averaging in the observation plane must be carried out over lines of equal intensity in the diffraction pattern, and the diffraction order ~ should be large.
