最近由Simon和Mukunda [J. Opt. Soc. Am. A9，95（1993）]，通过将这种光束分解成重叠的、相互不相关的但空间相干的分量场的加权叠加，在物理光学术语中被解释。的分解提供了相当多的物理洞察扭曲的GSM光束的传播特性，并提出了方便的实用方法，产生这些新的波场。利用声光相干控制技术提供必要的部分相干光场，实验证明了扭曲GSM光束的关键特性。
The twisted Gaussian Schell-model (GSM) beams, recently introduced by Simon and Mukunda [ J. Opt. Soc. Am. A9, 95 ( 1993)], are interpreted in physical-optics terms by decomposition of such beams into weighted superpositions of overlapping, mutually uncorrelated but spatially coherent component fields. The decomposition provides considerable physical insight into the propagation characteristics of the twisted GSM beams and also suggests convenient practical methods for generating these novel wave fields. Key properties of the twisted GSM beams are demonstrated experimentally by use of an acousto-optic coherence control technique to supply the necessary partially coherent fields.
