Abstract
The effect of amplitude filters on the fluctuations of intensity at the focus of a circular aperture due to a turbulent medium has been investigated. It has been shown that by properly shading the aperture, the fluctuations of intensity at the focus can be reduced to a marked degree.Keywords
