Abstract

The intensity fluctuation variances of a CO2-laser radiation pulse in the course of its non-lenear propagation through a cloud are theoretically studied. Considered are the cases of regular and explosive clearing processes. It Is found that the initial intensity fluctuations can be noticeably intensified as a result of radiation self- action occurrence.
