Abstract

The propagation of broadband femtosecond pulsed Laguerre-Gaussian beams in a turbulent atmosphere was studied. Based on the numerical solution of the parabolic wave equation for the complex spectral amplitude of the wave field by splitting method into physical factors relative variance and correlation function of the energy density fluctuations of the pulsed optical radiation were analyzed. It has been shown that with increasing optical turbulence the curves of the standard deviation of short pulse beams are reduced compared with the standard deviation of intensity fluctuations of continuous-wave radiation. The spatial structure of fluctuations of the energy density for the high-order modes Laguerre- Gaussian beam with a decrease of the pulse duration becomes more large-scale.
