Abstract
Algorithms of the parametric estimation of the correlation function of the polarized thermal light with the Lorentz, Gaussian and rectangular spectra, based on single-and first-event detection in the counting interval, are ex plored by means of simulation. The dependence of the statistical identifiab ility of the particular correlation function on the number of collected cou nts is demonstrated.
