Conditional measurements as probes of quantum dynamics

We discuss conditional measurements as probes of quantum dynamics and show that they provide different ways to characterize quantum fluctuations. We illustrate this by considering the light from a subthreshold degenerate parametric oscillator. Analytic results and curves are presented to illustrate...

Description
Summary:We discuss conditional measurements as probes of quantum dynamics and show that they provide different ways to characterize quantum fluctuations. We illustrate this by considering the light from a subthreshold degenerate parametric oscillator. Analytic results and curves are presented to illustrate the behavior.
