Before the development of lasers, all available light sources,
whether used in laboratories or found in nature, generated light
which underwent uncontrollable fluctuations inherent in the
emission process. Such fluctuations are detrimental to many
applications. This effect is almost completely suppressed in laser
radiation, making it possible to use lasers for a variety of
applications. The underlying theory of fluctuating optical fields
is known as coherence theory. Another manifestation of the
fluctuations is the so-called phenomenon of polarization. This book
is the first to provide a unified treatment of these two aspects of
statistical optics, made possible by very recent discoveries,
largely due to the author of this book. This will be of great
interest to graduate students and researchers in physics and
engineering in optical communications, the propagation of laser
beams through fibers and through the turbulent atmosphere, and
optical image formation. Each chapter contains problems to aid
self-study.
