Comment on Resurgence of Rayleighs curse in the presence of partial coherence


Abstract in English

Larson and Saleh [Optica 5, 1382 (2018)] suggest that Rayeleighs curse can recur and become unavoidable if the two sources are partially coherent. Here we show that their calculations and assertions have fundamental problems, and spatial-mode demultiplexing (SPADE) can overcome Rayleighs curse even for partially coherent sources.
