This article shows how the joint use of two complementary sets of depolarizing metrics, namely the Indices of polarimetric purity and the Components of purity, are sufficient to completely describe the integral depolarizing properties of a sample. Based on a collection of illustrative and representative polarimetric configurations, a clear and meaningful physical interpretation of such metrics is provided, thus extending the current tools and comprehension for the study and analysis of the depolarizing properties of material media. This study could be of interest to those users dealing with depolarization or depolarizing samples. 000110656 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MCIU-FEDER/RTI2018-097107-B-C31 000110656 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 000110656 590__ $$a3.833$$b2021 000110656 592__ $$a1.233$$b2021 000110656 594__ $$a7.3$$b2021 000110656 591__ $$aOPTICS$$b28 / 101 = 0.277$$c2021$$dQ2$$eT1 000110656 593__ $$aAtomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics$$c2021$$dQ1 000110656 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000110656 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0003-1740-2244$$aGil, José J.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000110656 700__ $$aGarcia-Caurel, Enrique 000110656 700__ $$aRomero, Javier García 000110656 700__ $$aOssikovski, Razvigor 000110656 700__ $$aJosé, Ignacio San 000110656 700__ $$aMoreno, Ignacio 000110656 700__ $$aCampos, Juan 000110656 700__ $$aLizana, Angel 000110656 7102_ $$12002$$2385$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
