摘要
We propose a high-precision digital automated quantitative determination of the modulus of the complex degree of coherence. The Thompson and Wolf experiment is repeated, using a CCD and a measurement method based on the fast Fourier transform. The experimental results agree very well with the predictions of the theory.
