Abstract: | We consider the problem of correlation between the surface brightnesses of two nearby points for an external galaxy under certain simplifying assumptions. A probability density function for these intensities are derived, as are its moments and correlation coefficient.Paper dedicated to Professor Hannes Alfvén on the occasion of his 80th birthday, 30 May 1988. |
