The phenomenon of noncoherent wave reflection associated with scattering by electromagnetic fluctuations in a semibounded plasma-molecular medium is studied. The differential reflection coefficients are computed for scattering by collective bulk and surface fluctuations. The authors consider a semibounded (Z > O) partially ionized plasma containing charged and neutral particles. We describe the molecular subsystem as an ensemble of pairs of classical electrons and ions.
