Strehl ratio probabilities for phase-only adaptive optic

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited === Atmospheric turbulence will induce phase and amplitude fluctuations in propagating electromagnetic waves, such as a laser beam. Adaptive optical systems attempt to compensate for these distortions. The Strehl ratio is a measure of the peak,...
