	~~== Measurement ==~~
	There are several ways to define the width of a beam. When measuring the beam parameter product and M², one uses the [[Beam diameter#D4σ or second moment width\|D4σ or "second moment" width]] of the beam to determine both the radius of the beam's waist and the divergence in the far field.<ref>A.

	The BPP can be easily measured by placing an [[array detector]] or [[scanning-slit profiler]] at multiple positions within the beam after focusing it with a [[lens (optics)\|lens]] of high optical quality and known [[focal length]]. To properly obtain the BPP and M² the following steps must be followed:<ref name="ISO11146-1">ISO 11146-1:2005(E), "Lasers and laser-related equipment — Test methods for laser beam widths, divergence angles and beam propagation ratios — Part 1: Stigmatic and simple astigmatic beams."</ref>

Using other definitions of beam width does not work.

	In principle, one could use a single measurement at the waist to obtain the waist diameter, a single measurement in the far field to obtain the divergence, and then use these to calculate the BPP. The procedure above gives a more accurate result in practice, however.
