The limit system derives from the acoustic wave equations and is described by a coupled system of random Schrödinger equations driven by a Brownian field whose covariance is determined by the two-point statistics of the fluctuations of the random medium. For the reflected and transmitted fields the associated Wigner distributions and the autocorrelation functions are determined by a closed system of transport equations. The Wigner distribution is then used to describe the enhanced backscattering phenomenon for the reflected field.Published in at http://dx.doi.org/10.1214/08-AAP543 the Annals of Applied Probability (http://www.imstat.org/aap/) by the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (http://www.imstat.org)Probability60H15, 35R60, 74J20 (Primary)Coupled paraxial wave equations in random media in the white-noise regimetext
