Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and systems for monitoring a welding process for welding at least one glass workpiece to another workpiece, e.g., also made of glass, wherein a weld seam is formed in the workpieces in a process zone that is exposed to a pulsed processing beam, e.g., to a pulsed laser beam, such as an ultra-short-pulse laser beam, wherein the radiation emitted by the process zone is detected in a time-resolved manner.
