Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

Abstract

Nonstationary thermal self-action of laser radiation with limited spatial coherency is analyzed using the nonlinear phase channel technique. Specifically, the main effects related to random field modulation are considered. The nonmonotonic change of correlation radius along the pulse length is explained. The results obtained are in good agreement with data of laboratory and numerical experiments.
