We present a revisited study of the Thompson-Wolf experiment earlier developed in 1957 with the aim to characterize the degree of spatial coherent of a luminous source. We develop further experiments by using laser sources under various modal regimes. We analyze the experimental results.
Key words: theory of partial coherence / laser sources / degree of spatial coherence
