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. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aOptics 606 $aElectrodynamics 606 $aLasers 606 $aPhotonics 606 $aSpectroscopy 606 $aMicroscopy 606 $aClassical Electrodynamics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21070 606 $aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31030 606 $aSpectroscopy and Microscopy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31090 615 0$aOptics. 615 0$aElectrodynamics. 615 0$aLasers. 615 0$aPhotonics. 615 0$aSpectroscopy. 615 0$aMicroscopy. 615 14$aClassical Electrodynamics. 615 24$aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices. 615 24$aSpectroscopy and Microscopy. 676 $a535 700 $aCámara$b Alejandro$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0792329 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300404703321 996 $aOptical Beam Characterization via Phase-Space Tomography$91771652 997 $aUNINA
