| Abstract: | We investigate in this paper the results yielded by a rigorous application of second order spatial coherence theory to a Gaussian TEM-multimode laser beam. Formulae for a qualitative discussion and a quantitative evaluation of the second order spatial coherence properties of a laser oscillator with an arbitrary number of longitudinal and/or transverse Gaussian TEM-modes of oscillation are derived and considered for some practically important cases. |
