The analysis of the polarization properties that are invariant under orthogonal transformations of the laboratory reference frame allows to define a set of six intrinsic Stokes parameters which provides a simplified interpretation of 3D states of polarization in terms of meaningful physical properties. The rotationally invariant properties of 2D states of polarization are straightforwardly retrieved in a consistent way, so that the 2D intrinsic Stokes parameters are constituted by the intensity, the degree of linear polarization and the degree of circular polarization. 000036761 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/FIS2014-58303-P$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/FIS2011-22496 000036761 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 000036761 590__ $$a1.199$$b2015 000036761 591__ $$aOPTICS$$b60 / 91 = 0.659$$c2015$$dQ3$$eT2 000036761 592__ $$a0.561$$b2015 000036761 593__ $$aAtomic and Molecular Physics, and Optics$$c2015$$dQ2 000036761 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000036761 7102_ $$12001$$2205$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
