Abstract

The measured distribution of the single-channel delay time of localized microwave radiation and its correlation with intensity differ sharply from the behavior of diffusive waves. The delay time is found to increase with intensity, while its variance is inversely proportional to the fourth root of the intensity. The distribution of the delay time weighted by the intensity is found to be a double-sided stretched exponential to the 1/3 power centered at zero. The correlation between dwell time and intensity provides a dynamical test of photon localization.
