phase space, and therefore Brilliance.

Phase space distribution can be obtained from
the electric field at a transverse plane, OR by
its Fourier transform (just one, thats
coherence) For numerical treatment, a discrete
transformation is desirable. The two
polarization components must be trated
separately. Phase terms cannot be neglected.
All this is needed only for diffraction limited
sources

49Optical system
Optical system limitations to phase space
Light gathering for an undulator is not just
image formation because The undulator light
source is not punctual but linear The
magnification for different cross sections of a
linear light source depends on its relative
position Only one section of the undulator is
focused in a given image plane (located at sample
or detector position) The printfoot of light
coming from off-plane sections spreads because of
the defocusing
