Abstract: The symplectic tomograms of two-dimensional (2D) Hermite-Gauss beams are found and expressed in terms of the Hermite polynomials squared. It is shown that measurements of optical-field intensities may be used to determine the tomograms of electromagnetic-radiation modes. Furthermore, entropic uncertainty relations associated with these tomograms are found and applied to establish the compatibility conditions of the field profile properties with Hermite-Gauss beam description. Numerical evaluations for some Hermite-Gauss modes illustrating the corresponding entropic uncertainty relations are finally given.
