Verifying entanglement with experimental measurements requires that we take the limitations of experimental techniques into account, while still proving that the data obtained could not have been generated from a classical source. In the…
Thermal states of light are widely used in quantum optics due to their correlation properties. As is well known, their correlation properties and the photon number distribution as a whole are strongly dependent on the mode number selected…
