Abstract
A study is reported of the influence of twisting a fibre waveguide int o a helix on the speckle pattern of light transmitted by the fibre whe n the pitch of the helix was altered. Rotation of the speckle pattern was discovered. This rotation was numerically equal to the change in t he solid angle formed on a unit sphere in the space of the tangents to the fibre.
