Stochastic view of photon migration in turbid media.
arXiv:cond-mat/0401409, 2004.
[ http ]
Light propagation in an infinite uniform turbid medium is
treated as a Markov stochastic process of photons to
provide an intuitive framework for photon migration. The
macroscopic physical quantities of photon migration are
shown to be completely determined by the microscopic
statistics of the photon propagation direction in direction
space and a generalized Poisson distribution of the number
of scattering events that includes an exponential decay
absorption factor. A proper diffusion solution is derived
with an exact time-dependent central position and half
width of photon migration in this framework. The diffusion
coefficient is found to be absorption-independent.
