Quantum tomography of inelastic electron scattering \emph{via} orbital angular momentum states

Amir H. Tavabi, Alessio D'Errico, Paolo Rosi +10

The physical properties of a quantum system, whether pure or mixed, are described fully by its density matrix. Recovery of the density matrix through projective measurements -- ref…
