It is shown that a recently derived approximate solution to the fourth-moment equation that was thought to be valid only for strong scattering is in fact valid for all values of the scattering parameter. A modified Kolmogorov spectrum for the index-of-refraction fluctuations has been used. Results in two dimensions are presented for comparison with numerical solutions. In addition, results in three dimensions, that should represent a quantitatively accurate, theoretical description of the atmospheric-scintillation problem, are given.
