Propagation of Stochastic Electromagentic Fields in Atmospheric Turbulence
Abstract
The main topics along which the investigations under the grant were made encompassed the development of basic theory of stochastic electromagnetic fields, their free-space propagation, interaction with various media, and optical systems, their scattering from continuous media and particles, their propagation in turbulent media. In addition, deep analysis of existing and development of new techniques which utilize stochastic beams is carried out. Among our main contributions are the theory of weak scattering of stochastic fields from collections of particles, theory of electromagnetic scattering, combination of theories of propagation in turbulence and weak particle scattering, propagation of stochastic fields in non-classic turbulence and the influence of the power-spectrum slope on the beams, and the active LIDARs using stochastic beams.
