RESUMO
In previous work, we presented theory of how atmospheric turbulence can impart orbital angular momentum to propagating optical waves. In this paper we provide the first experimental demonstration of the detection of orbital angular momentum from distributed volume turbulence through the identification of well-defined, turbulence-induced, optical vortex trails in Shack-Hartmann wave front sensor measurements.
