Download ebook Dover Books on Physics: Wave Propagation in a Turbulent Medium by V. I. Tatarski in DJV, PDF
9780486810294 0486810291 "An important contribution ... The translation is readable both from the language and the technical points of view." Science. This monograph describes the phenomena associated with the propagation of electromagnetic and acoustic waves through atmospheric turbulence. Geared toward specialists in radiophysics and atmospheric acoustics and optics, the treatment is also suitable for advanced undergraduates and graduate students. The author stresses applications to phase and amplitude fluctuations, scintillation of stars, radio scattering, and other problems. Part I covers topics from the theory of random fields and turbulence theory, including statistical description. Part II, on the scattering of waves in the turbulent atmosphere, is supplemented by an appendix on scattering of acoustic radiation. Part III offers a detailed presentation of line-of-sight propagation of acoustic and electromagnetic waves through a turbulent medium. Part IV concludes the text with a comparison of theory with experimental data., This monograph describes the phenomena associated with the propagation of electromagnetic and acoustic waves through atmospheric turbulence. Geared toward specialists in radiophysics and atmospheric acoustics and optics, it covers both theoretical and experimental aspects. The treatment stresses applications to phase and amplitude fluctuations, scintillation of stars, radio scattering, and other problems.
