Abstract:

A model probability density and experimental data on the saturated intensity fluctuations are compared. It is shown that experimental data on the saturated wave intensity fluctuations are definitely indicative of deviations from the lognormal distribution and tend to the K–distribution, which should be considered as an asymptotic approximation for the probability density of the saturated intensity fluctuations.
