摘要：

We present a rigorous treatment of the diffusion approximation for multiple light scattering in anisotropic random media, and apply it to director fluctuations in a nematic liquid crystal. For a typical nematic material, 5CB, we give numerical values of the diffusion constants D-parallel to and D-perpendicular to. We also calculate the temporal autocorrelation function measured in diffusing wave spectroscopy.
