Marginal of Wigner Function calculation
I am reading on the Wigner function from the Gerry and Knight book. It defines it as:
$$ W(q, p) \equiv \frac{1}{2 \pi \hbar} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\left\langle q+\frac{1}{2} x|\hat{\rho}| q-\frac{1} …

Units of electric field in quantum optics
Similarly, the expectation value for number operator in mode 4 is the same for a 50/50 beam splitter. This simply implies that the average number of photons in either one of the output ports is $50\% …

Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) effect - question on math of indistinguishability of photons
I’m working on the transformations of multi-photon states through a beam splitter, and I encountered confusion in some normalization factors . Using beam splitter transformations:
$$ \hat{a}^\dagger \ …
