Abstract:

A comparative method of two wave probing for laser beam fluctuations investigation has been developed experimentally. One of the waves has been partly absorbed by water steam in a turbulent atmosphere. It has been found that laser beam fluctuations spectral power was periodically modulated. The data obtained have been explained by transportation peculiarities of water steam in a turbulent atmosphere.
