Scientific paper

Propagation through a thin turbulent layer is studied in order to establish close agreement between results obtained in optics and in radio astronomy in approximate solutions to Tatarskii's equation for the intensity scintillations of a wave propagating through such a layer. Optics results based on iterative solutions and on purely physical theories have hitherto been considered at variance with radio astronomy results based on a phase screen approximation. The mathematical equivalence of these solutions is also demonstrated for an extended medium, and Rumsey's (1975) results are shown to be a limiting case of the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle.
