Two-frequency Wigner distribution is introduced to capture the asymptotic behavior of the space-frequency correlation of paraxial waves in the radiative transfer limits. The scaling limits give rises to deterministic transport-like…
We study the paraxial wave equation with a randomly perturbed index of refraction, which can model the propagation of a wave beam in a turbulent medium. The random perturbation is a stationary and isotropic process with a general form of…

Starting with the Wigner distribution formulation for beam wave propagation in H\"{o}lder continuous non-Gaussian random refractive index fields we show that the wave beam regime naturally leads to the white-noise scaling limit and…
When waves propagate through a complex or heterogeneous medium the wave field is corrupted by the heterogeneities. Such corruption limits the performance of imaging or communication schemes. One may then ask the question: is there an…
