Changes in the spectrum of twist anisotropic Gaussian Schell-model beams propagating through turbulent atmosphere

Based on the extended Huygens-Fresnel principle, the spectrum of twist anisotropic Gaussian Schell-model (TAGSM) beams propagating through turbulent atmosphere is derived analytically by using the partially coherent complex curvature tensor. The relative spectral shift of TAGSM beams propagating through turbulent atmosphere is closely related with the strength of atmospheric turbulence, the beam’s parameter and the radial coordinate. The on-axis spectral shift of TAGSM beams propagating through turbulent atmosphere changes from blue shift to red shift with the increasing of the propagation distance z, and at a certain propagation distance z, there exists a rapid transition of the spectrum at the critical position r_c.
