Scintillation reduction for combined Gaussian-vortex beam propagating through turbulent atmosphere
G. P. Berman, V. N. Gorshkov, S. V. Torous
We numerically examine the spatial evolution of the structure of coherent and partially coherent laser beams (PCBs), including the optical vortices, propagating in turbulent atmosp…

Reduction of laser intensity scintillations in turbulent atmospheres using time averaging of a partially coherent beam
G. P. Berman, A. R. Bishop, B. M. Chernobrod +5
We demonstrate experimentally and numerically that the application of a partially coherent beam (PCB) in combination with time averaging leads to a significant reduction in the sci…
