Abstract:	High-dynamic range isolation of the interference term and the non-interference term in the inverse Fourier-transformed spectral interferogram as required in Self-Referenced-Spectral-Interferometry (SRSI) for single-shot high-dynamic range laser pulse characterization is not always practically possible due to presence of the non-interference term over the entire temporal widow. Alternatively, we propose and demonstrate that one could directly obtain the single-shot Fourth-Order-Crosscorrelation (FOX) of the laser pulse to be characterized via SRSI (FOX-SRSI) from the interference term as the high-dynamic range laser contrast measurement, avoiding the need to isolate the interference and non-interference terms. As a consequence, the undesired contribution from the non-interference term limits the valid temporal window of the measurement. The single-shot FOX-SRSI result is consistent with the laser contrast measured independently using a multi-shot scanning third-order autocorrelator.
