Abstract :
A simple statistical model of a noisy optical pulse is used to derive concise analytic expressions for the contrast ratios of nonlinear pulsewidth measurements. The results are sufficiently general to be used as an aid in the interpretation of intensity correlation experiments using either 
th-order multiphoton absorption or th-order harmonic generation. The amplitude of the spike is expected to be much larger in the higher order experiments.
