Abstract
Theoretical reduction in intensity fluctuations of a focused laser beam propagating through a randomly inhomogeneous medium was qualitatively examined in an experiment in which intensity fluctuations were observed near the focus of the optical system used. A wind tunnel was used to produce the randomly inhomogeneous medium.
