Experimental investigation of the stability of Bessel beams in the atmosphere

We described an experiment on passing Bessel beams through the atmosphere with heat-trolled flows. We showed that at small distances, while passing through the region with a hot air flow, the Bessel beam can be distorted to a complete loss of the structure, but with further propagation over large distances it completely restores its structure. We also described an experiment with the passage of superpositions of vortex beams through the atmosphere with heat flows and aerosols.
