Abstract:We address potential deviations of radiation field from the bosonic behaviour
and employ local quantum estimation theory to evaluate the ultimate bounds to
precision in the estimation of these deviations using quantum-limited
measurements on optical signals. We consider different classes of boson
deformation and found that intensity measurement on coherent or thermal states
would be suitable for their detection making, at least in principle, tests of
boson deformation feasible with current quantum optical tech… Show more
