    In this paper, by using the hydrodynamical model of optics and the invariant integral of the radial component E⊥ of the beam cross-section energy, we analyze the influences on the beam quality M2 factor from the wave surface distortion and from the nonuniform amplitude distribution respectively, introduce two new kinds of definitions of the beam quality, and discuss the relation among these two definitions and the M2 factor.
