0 a very small mark of a different colour from the area around it, usually found with a large number of other marks of the same type: --
The single speckle, or hot spot, is the simplest irreducible element for studying laser plasma interactions.
This staining pattern was comparable with controls except for small debris-like speckles visible in some blastomeres.
A pattern matching algorithm allows the operator to track speckles occurring naturally in the myocardium.
The high spatial frequency components in the speckle pattern caused by random phase irradiation are removed by incoherent overlapping of broadband laser light.
In some lights the under surface of the legs appears distinctly and regularly speckled, a character due evidently to the regular arrangement of the scales.
At the target, these beamlets interfere and create a speckle pattern with a broad range of spatial frequencies.
The # 2 reduction due to the overlap of the two speckle patterns is readily discerned.
The final chapter is on fundamental limits in photoelectric detection of light, and different kinds of interferometry, including speckle interferometry, are discussed in this context.
