Abstract
Statistical optics, and optical coherence in particular, developed into a stand-alone branch of physical optics in the second half of the 20th century and has found a number of ground-breaking applications in astronomical measurements, medical diagnostics, environmental remote sensing, and wireless communications [...]

Summary
Introduction to the Special Issue onStructured Light CoherenceOlga Korotkova 1,* and Franco Gori 2. The coherence states of optical sources were shown to play a fundamental role in the evolution of various measurable properties of light fields radiated by them, such as the diffraction rate, the spectral composition, the polarization properties, and the orbital angular momentum structure. This was exploited for designing sources giving legitimate average intensity distributions in the far field.
