Description

A numerical procedure is proposed to study the decoherence of the entanglement between a pair of qubits due to atmospheric turbulence. The qubits are photons entangled in terms orbital angular momentum modes and the turbulent atmosphere is modeled with the von Karman-Tatarski spectrum.
