The double-slit experiment strikingly demonstrates the wave-particle duality of quantum objects. In this famous experiment, particles pass one-by-one through a pair of slits and are detected on a distant screen. A distinct wave-like pattern…

How to manage coherence as a continuous variable quantum resource is still an open question. We face this situation from the very definition of incoherent states in quadrature basis. We apply several measures of coherence for some physical…
