Resumen
According to first-order Born approximation, the scattering of a partially coherent pulse with cosine-Gaussian correlation by a medium was studied. On the basis of analytic expression, the changes in intensity evolution of the scattered pulse are discussed. The influences of pulse and medium characteristics on the intensity of the scattered pulse were investigated. The intensities of a Gaussian Schell-model (GSM) pulse and a cosine-Gaussian-correlated Schell-model (CGSM) pulse, both scattered by the same medium, are compared, and their similarities and differences are examined in detail. The effective angular width of the scattered pulse could be modulated by the parameters of the pulse and medium. The obtained results could find potential applications in pulsed beam scattering.
