Non-Gaussianity of multiple photon subtracted thermal states in terms of compound-Poisson photon number distribution parameters: theory and experiment
arXiv:1712.04174 · doi:10.1088/1612-202X/aabed6
Abstract
The multiphoton-subtracted thermal states are an interesting example of quantum states of light which are both classical and non-Gaussian. All the properties of such states can be described by just two parameters of compound-Poisson photon number distribution. The non-Gaussianity dependency on these parameters has been calculated numerically and analytically. The loss of non-Gaussianity during the optical damping has been also studied experimentally.
