I'm taking bachelor degree in physics in Bari, Italy. However, I solved that problem on my own, and though it seemed to me very complex, I can assure that it is very easy (making some useful hypoteses before solving). The subject of this problem concerns Quantum Optics, a very fascinating...

Thanks to Meir Achuz for the correction. I confused the lines after the tex tags! Fran:blushing:

main properties of Spherical Harmonics The peculiar properties of Spherical Harmonics are sintetized as follows: Y_l ^{-m}=(-1)^m Y_l ^{m\ast}(orthonormality) \int_\Omega Y_{l_1} ^{m_1 \ast}Y_{l_2} ^{m_2} d\Omega=\delta_{l_1 l_2} \delta_{m_1 m_2} \sum_{m=-l} ^lY_l ^{m\ast}Y_l ^m=1...

normalized correlation function As someone could be interested in helping me to solve it, I write the equation that I need to solve to get the degree of first order coherence for a beam of light whose electric field amplitude has the following form...

working attachment thank you very much! try this pdf. I hope you could help me also with the second question... I'm very obliged even only for your interest! Bye, Fran:blushing:

Hi! I'm new here, but I hope that someone would evenly help me! My first question is about the problem (3.3 on page 100 from Loudon - The Quantum Theory of Light 3ed) in the attachment; the second question is about discussing (I)the physical origin of fluctuations of the electromagnetic...
