The beam width and the angular spread of a partially coherent beam, and their transformation as the beam passes through Sp(2, R) first order optical systems are studied using the method of generalized rays. A generalized abcd-law which governs this transformation is derived. Kogelnik's abcd-law for coherent gaussian beams and its later generalization to gaussian Schell-model beams are shown to be special cases of this law
