Shear Definition and 621 Threads

How do two light beams combine at a shear angle? Two electromagnetic beams cross at a shear angle. They have equal phase, intensity and polarization. The angle is shear enough, so that in region in which they intersect, there is less than a quarter wave difference in phase over the...
