Abstract
Starting from the space-time Wigner distribution function and taking the Gaussian Schell-model pulsed beam as a typical example, the M 2 factor of partially coherent ultrashort pulsed beams is studied. It is shown that the M 2 factor increases with increasing bandwidth and decreases with increasing spatial correlation. Furthermore, for chirped pulse, the M 2 factor increases as the chirp parameter increases.
