Abstract

It is shown theoretically and experimentally that free space propagation in vacuum provides self-filtering of beam fluence fluctuations (spatial small-scale noise). The linear interference of the noise and the primary smooth beam during the propagation results in temporal filtering invoked by the noise pulse delay with respect to the primary beam pulse and in spatial filtering caused by the noise spatial walk-off from the aperture of the primary beam.
