The scattering of line photons in a turbulent medium is reexamined. We take into account the fact that a photon absorbed in a turbulent element having some velocity will be reemitted by the same element and keeps in that way a certain 'memory' of its absorption. Adding the contributions of all turbulent elements at a given point, we construct new redistribution functions describing this correlation. They give the probability that a photon with frequency x in the direction n is absorbed and reemitted at frequency x' in the direction n'. A preliminary discussion of the problem is given in an astrophysical context.
