The effects of finite sizes of source and detector on observed intensity fluctuations of Gaussian light are investigated both theoretically and experimentally. The theory allows a measurement of source size to be made using a single receiving aperture, rather than two as used in the Hanbury-Brown Twiss intensity interferometer.
