Measuring the Quantum State of Light

A new volume in the CAMBRIDGE STUDIES IN MODERN OPTICS series aimed at graduates and researchers. A discussion of the quantum properties of light, quantum tomography, the quantum mechanical description of simple optical instruments, and the problem of simultaneous measurement of position and momentum.

Zusammenfassung
New theoretical analyses and optical experiments have given rise to a more complete knowledge of the quantum properties of light. This book provides the first detailed description of this branch of quantum optics. It will appeal to graduate students and researchers in quantum optics, as well as anyone interested in the foundations of quantum mechanics.
