We carry out a theoretical investigation to clarify the dynamic property of photo-created nano-sized ferroelectric cluster observed in the paraelectric BaTiO3 as a real time correlation of speckle pattern between two soft X-ray laser pulses, at just above the paraelectric-ferroelectric phase transition temperature. Based on a model with coupled soft X-ray photon and ferroelectric phonon mode, we study the time dependence of scattering probability by using a perturbative expansion approach. The cluster-associated phonon softening as well as central peak effects are well reproduced in the phonon spectral function via quantum Monte Carlo simulation. Besides, it is found that the time dependence of speckle correlation is determined by the relaxation dynamics of ferroelectric clusters. Near the transition point, cluster excitation is stable, leading to a long relaxation time. While, at high temperature, cluster structure is subject to the thermal fluctuation, ending up with a short relaxation time.
