The relationship between thermal light and coherent pulses is of fundamental and practical interest. We now know that thermal light cannot be represented as a statistical mixture of single pulses. In this paper we ask whether or not thermal…
Non-local models of stellar convection can account for mixing effects in regions adjacent to convectively unstable layers and for changes to the mean temperature structure caused by free, buoyancy driven convection. The physical…
