The book describes several non-interferometric methods based on phase-space tomography for recovering the spatial coherence information of optical beams. In the context of optical beams, partially coherent light provides numerous advantages over coherent light. From microscopy to optical communications, there are many disciplines that benefit from using partially coherent beams. However, their range of applications currently remains limited due to the complexity of extracting information. In addition to providing a feasible experimental solution for the general case, the book explores several situations in which beam symmetries are exploited to simplify the information extraction process. Each characterisation method is accompanied by a corresponding theoretical explanation and a thorough description of experimental examples. 000728256 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed July 22, 2015). 000728256 650_0 $$aOptical tomography. 000728256 650_0 $$aCoherence (Optics) 000728256 830_0 $$aSpringer theses. 000728256 852__ $$bebk 000728256 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-19980-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000728256 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:728256$$pGLOBAL_SET 000728256 980__ $$aEBOOK 000728256 980__ $$aBIB 000728256 982__ $$aEbook 000728256 983__ $$aOnline 000728256 994__ $$a92$$bISE
