Title Decay of electron waves in a random medium
Date 1982
Description This paper reports calculation of the time-correlation function of an electron wave of given wave vector k in a three-dimensional medium with weak scatterers randomly distributed. An initial parabolic decay is followed by the usual exponential law which, asymptotically, gives way to a 1/t3 law.
