Image formation in Fourier-transform holography is theoretically andexperimentally treated from the viewpoint of partial coherenece. The effects of partially spatial coherence on the Fourier-transform holography are studied. It becomes clear that a reconstructed image is degraded accor-ding to the degree ofspatial coherence. A new method of measuring spatial coherence of illumi-nating light is proposed by means of Fourier-transform holography. Experimental resultsconcernedwith the image degradation and the measurement of spatial coherence arepresented.
