Abstract
By analyzing the first-order interference of two independent thermal light beams with both classical and quantum theories, we conclude that it is impossible to observe the transient first-order interference pattern by superposing two independent thermal light beams even if the degeneracy parameter of thermal light is much greater than one. The result suggests that the classical model of thermal light field within the coherence time may not be the same as the one of laser light field within the coherence time.
