This paper presents an interdisciplinary review of the correlation properties of random
wavefields. We expose several important theoretical results of various fields, ranging from …

The structure of the earth has been extensively studied using seismic waves generated by
natural earthquakes and man-made sources. In classical seismology, the earth is …

This textbook offers the first unified treatment of wave propagation in electronic and
electromagnetic systems and introduces readers to the essentials of the transfer matrix …

Interpreting wave phenomena in terms of an underlying ray dynamics adds a new
dimension to the analysis of linear wave equations. Forming explicit connections between …

We first present a summary of recent results on coda interpretation. We emphasize the
observation of the stabilization of P to S energy ratio indicating the modal equipartition of the …

Using noise in seismology. When a diffuse wave field is generated by distant sources and/or
by multiple scattering, detectors report random signals. Occasionally a ray (for example, the …

We present a physically intuitive matrix approach for wave imaging and characterization in
scattering media. The experimental proof of concept is performed with ultrasonic waves, but …

We report on the direct observation of coherent backscattering (CBS) of ultracold atoms in a
quasi-two-dimensional configuration. Launching atoms with a well-defined momentum in a …

This paper is devoted to the mechanics of fractally heterogeneous media. A model of fractal
continuum with a fractional number of spatial degrees of freedom and a fractal metric is …
