Fringe localization in interferometers illuminated by a succession of incoherent line sources

It is well known that interference fringes formed by an interferometer that is illuminated with a point source are non-localized and, when it is done with an extended source, they are localized. Nevertheless, when the interferometer is illuminated with a discrete succession of points or lines, the l...
