Abstract
Recent experiments have confirmed that coherent effects in the multiple scattering of light affect the angular dependence of the intensity reflected by disordered media. By considering the constructive interferences between time-reversed paths of light in a semi-infinite medium, we analyze the experimental line shape of the albedo within the diffusion approximation and explain the observed effects of polarization.
