Experiments using coherent light, long-time known in the visible and applied here very successfully, have received recently a lot of attention for the X-ray regime since it was possible to use incoherent X-ray sources. In the future, FELs will be coherent sources of X-rays therefore providing strongly improved coherence properties.
This course summarises information about various sources and the generation of coherent (X-ray) light and explains its properties. The coherency enables new experiments and scientific applications and the lectures about imaging and spectroscopy will provide fundamental insight.
