Verification of Relations Obtained in Radio Astronomy for Correlation Reception of Thermal Acoustic Radiation
摘要
In this study, correlation reception of thermal acoustic radiation by a pair of sensors was carried out. The experiment used receivers with different bandwidths, varied the size of the heated sources and the distance from the sources to the receivers, and also shifted the sources in the transverse direction perpendicular to the acoustic axis of the system. For each case, applying the relations used in radio astronomy, the correlation functions of thermal acoustic radiation were calculated. It is shown that the experimentally obtained and calculated cross-correlation functions are close, taking into account the measurement error.
