Light incoherence due to background space fluctuations
arXiv:1612.03259 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.94.124044
Abstract
Working by analogy, we use the description of light fluctuations due to random collisions of the radiating atoms to figure out why the reduction of the coherence for light propagating a cosmological distance in the fluctuating background space is negligibly small to be observed by the stellar interferometry.
