Page 3 - Phase Space Optics Fundamentals and Applications

About the Authors
Markus Testorf received his doctorate in physics from
the University of Erlangen in Germany. He is currently
an assistant professor at the Thayer School of Engineer-
ing at Dartmouth College. Dr. Testorf has written nu-
merous articles on the use of phase-space optics. He
has taught optics courses throughout his professional
career, and phase-space concepts have also become part
of his standard repertoire in the classroom.

Bryan Hennelly received his doctorate in optical
physics from the University College Dublin in Ireland
in 2005. He is currently a research fellow at the
NationalUniversityofIreland,Maynooth.Dr.Hennelly
has written or coauthored numerous articles based
on Wigner or phase-space optics relating to optical
metrology systems and the sampling and numerical
simulation of optical systems.

Jorge Ojeda-Casta˜neda earned his doctorate in applied
optics, at University of Reading, UK. As an Alexander
von Humboldt fellow, he worked at the University of
Erlangen, in Germany. Dr. Ojeda-Casta˜neda has been a
visiting professor at the Institute of Optics in Madrid,
the University of Valencia, the Autonomous University
of Barcelona, and the University James I in Spain. He
is currently professor of applied optics, in the Univer-
sity of Guanajuato, M´exico. Dr. Ojeda-Casta˜neda has
written more than 200 papers in academic journals and
conference proceedings. In many of his oral and writ-
ten contributions, he has pioneered the use of phase-
space representations of optical systems. Dr. Ojeda-
Casta˜neda is a fellow of the SPIE and the OSA.
