Scientific paper

This paper points out that partial coherence effects may result in distant objects apparently fluctuating in intensity and structure as a result of motion of the observer with respect to the source. It is suggested that these effects may play a role in explaining the intensity fluctuations and superluminal velocities observed in astrophysical objects such as quasars.
