TL;DR Summary
Help deriving a result found in "Numerical Simulation of Optical Wave Propagation" by Jason Schmidt. I'm trying to work out by hand an equation stating that the ensemble average of the squared fourier coefficients of a 2D phase function equals the Power Spectral Density( Phi(fx,fy) multiplied by 1/A, where A is the domain area ( either delta_fx*delta_fy in frequency space, or 1/(L_x*L_y) in real space). I am having trouble seeing how to get this result. Please assist in the derivation.

So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower. Now protons and neutrons and quarks and whatever other stuff is there fundamentally, I want someone to kind of teach me these, I have a lot of questions that books might not give the answer in the way I understand. Thanks
I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
