Abstract
In our recent publication, we have examined the intensity fluctuations of flat-topped beam in non-Kolmogorov weak turbulence [J. Opt. Soc. Am. A 29, 169 (2012)] in which our comparison of the scintillation indices in the Kolmogorov and in various non-Kolmogorov turbulences was based on the same structure constant, no matter what power law the non-Kolmogorov spectrum takes. In such choice of the fixed structure constant, which is also being used by many researchers in the field [Opt. Express 18, 451 (2010); Proc. SPIE 6747, 67470B (2007); Opt. Commun. 285, 880 (2012)], we have found that the variation of the scintillation index against non-Kolmogorov power law exhibits a peak at the worst power law, which happens to be smaller than the Kolmogorov power law of
