30. The peaks in 2D-correlation spectra that develop before the noise peaks appear are considered as significant. In 2D-correlation asynchronous spectra of all studied samples no significant peaks were found. Thus, the spectra are not presented in this paper because they do not contain any important information.
31. A diagonal of the synchronous spectrum is called a power spectrum and yields information about the total intensity changes at a given wavenumber.
