A novel thermal light interferometer was recently introduced in V. Tamma and J. Seiler, New J. Phys. 18, 032002 (2016). Here, two classically correlated beams, obtained by beam splitting a thermal light beam, propagate through two…
In a recent experiment by Eichmann et al., polarization-sensitive measurements of the fluorescence from two four-level ions driven by a linearly polarized laser were made. Depending on the polarization chosen, different degrees of…
The wave nature of light is revealed by diffraction from physical structures. We report a time-domain version of the classic Young's double-slit experiment: a beam of light twice gated in time produces an interference in the frequency…
Multi-wavelength spectroscopy can be used to constrain the dust and gas properties in debris disks. Circumstellar dust absorbs and scatters incident stellar light. The scattered light is sometimes resolved spatially at visual and…
We consider the interference of two photons with different colors in the context of a Hong-Ou-Mandel experiment, in which single photons enter each of the input ports of a beam splitter, and exit in the same, albeit undetermined, output…
Some modified two-slit interference experiments were carried out showing an apparent paradox in wave-particle duality. In a typical such experiment, the screen, where the interference pattern is supposed to be formed, is replaced by a…
We present a method to separate a single image captured under two illuminants, with different spectra, into the two images corresponding to the appearance of the scene under each individual illuminant. We do this by training a deep neural…
Proposed, justified and tested measuring of beam spatial coherence, based on the detection of an interference visibility of the equal to intensity of beam replicas emerging under reflection from the rotated plane-parallel plate. The method…
Quantum entanglement is an important resource for next-generation technologies. We show that diffracting systems can supplant beam splitters, and more generally interferometric networks, for entanglement generation -- systems as simple as…
The distortion on the intermittency signal, due to detection efficiency and to the presence of pre--equilibrium emitted particles, is studied in a schematic model of nuclear multi- fragmentation. The source of the intermittency signal is…

Ghost imaging is a remarkable technique where light that never interacts with an object is detected with a camera and still the image of the object is recorded. The method relies on the use of correlated light and an additional bucket…
Fourier analysis of ghost imaging (FAGI) is proposed in this paper to analyze the properties of ghost imaging with thermal light sources. This new theory is compatible with the general correlation theory of intensity fluctuation and could…
