1202.3195 (Marcelo V. da Cunha Pereira et al.)

Cancellation of atmospheric turbulence angle-of-arrival fluctuations    [PDF]

Marcelo V. da Cunha Pereira, Luísa A. P. Filpi, Carlos H. Monken
By using a turbulence chamber which emulates the dynamic behavior of the
actual turbulent atmosphere, we show that the most deleterious wavefront
aberration imparted to an optical beam, the angle-of-arrival fluctuation, which
corresponds in practical situations to more than 87% of all the wavefront
aberrations in free-space propagation, can be cancelled using two-photon
correlation measurements and passive linear optics.
