We examine polarization properties of electromagnetic field states with Gaussian complex-amplitude distributions, such as quadrature coherent and squeezed states, thermal chaotic states, and two-mode squeezed vacuum states. We compute their polarization distribution and we apply to them diverse meas
A new set of invariant variables is introduced to describe a process with n particles in the final state. The invariant phase space density is calculated in terms of these invariants and in terms of the usual invariant scalar products of pairs of four vectors. The new invariants include variables w
