Abstract

Statistical characteristics of optical vortices have been analyzed in the paper. As was shown such vortices appear in the radiation wavefront if the initial phase is set as a mathematical raw formed by Zernike polynomials or by a phase screen simulating atmospheric turbulence with a spectrum of the index of refraction fluctuations prescribed by a von Karman formula. In both examples considered here the statistical properties of the vortex distribution satisfy the requirements of the Central limit theorem, and acceptable correspondence is also observed between parameters of beams formed by polynomials and by a phase screen.
