    "abstract": "We present a method to characterize the polarization state of a light field\nin the continuous-variable regime. Instead of using the abstract formalism of\nSU(2) quasidistributions, we model polarization in the classical spirit by\nsuperposing two harmonic oscillators of the same angular frequency along two\northogonal axes. By describing each oscillator by a $s$-parametrized\nquasidistribution, we derive in a consistent way the final function for the\npolarization. We compare with previous approaches and discuss how this\nformalism works in some relevant examples.",
