We analyze the phase-noise measurement methods in which correlation and averaging is used to reject the background noise of the instrument. All the known methods make use of a mixer, used either as a saturated phase detector or as a linear…

Using multi-photon entangled input states, we estimate the phase uncertainty in a noiseless Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) using photon-counting detection. We assume a flat prior uncertainty and use Bayesian inference to construct a…

Poisson distributed shot noise is normally considered in the Gaussian limit in cosmology. However, if the shot noise is large enough and the correlation function/power spectrum conspires, the Gaussian approximation mis-estimates the errors…

Quantum simulation, the study of strongly correlated quantum matter using synthetic quantum systems, has been the most successful application of quantum computers to date. It often requires determining observables with high precision, for…

Confirmation bias, the tendency to interpret information in a way that aligns with one's preconceptions, can profoundly impact scientific research, leading to conclusions that reflect the researcher's hypotheses even when the observational…
