TLDR
In this article, the limit of resolution for two antiphase coherent point objects with reference to one-dimensional diffraction limited optical systems (slit apertures) was studied.Abstract:
The limit of resolution for two antiphase coherent point objects is studied with reference to one-dimensional diffraction limited optical systems (slit apertures). The ratios of measurable to real point separation and of measurable to real peak intensity are also investigated.read more

Quantum Fisher information with coherence
TL;DR: It is found that claims about a strong enhancement of the resolution resulting from coherence effects are questionable because they refer to very small subsets of the data without proper normalization.

Exploring the ultimate limits: super-resolution enhanced by partial coherence.
TL;DR: The resolution of separation of two elementary signals forming a partially coherent superposition, defined by quantum Fisher information and normalized with respect to detection probabilities, is always limited by the resolution of incoherent mixtures but when these superpositions are prepared in a controlled way, the precision can be enhanced by up to several orders of magnitude above this limit.

Apodization for improving the two-point resolution of coherent optical systems with defect of focus
TL;DR: In this paper, an amplitude apodization influenced defocused optical system used to form a coherent light illuminated two-point sources with an improved resolution was analyzed and the composite coherent image intensity distributions in the defocused and the Gaussian (Yd = 0) planes have been calculated and compared.

Two-point Resolution Criteria in Partially Coherent Imaging
Eric C. Kintner,R.M. Sillitto +1 more
TL;DR: The Rayleigh criterion has been investigated as a performance criterion for optical systems imaging in partially coherent light as discussed by the authors, and it has been shown to be insensitive to the amount of primary spherical aberration.

TL;DR: In this paper, the resolving power is shown to vary from extremely good to worse than that based on the Rayleigh criterion, depending upon the location of the illuminated area on the hologram during reconstruction.

Two-point resolution with non-uniform illumination by partially coherent light
TL;DR: In this article, the Sparrow criterion of resolution was used to obtain an expression for the limit of resolution of a circular aperture, with non-uniform illumination by partially coherent light, and the image intensity distributions for the two partially coherent points with different separations were obtained.
