Violations of a Leggett-Garg inequality without signaling for a photonic qutrit probed with ambiguous measurements (2018)
Journal Article
Wang, K., Emary, C., Xu, M., Zhan, X., Bian, Z., Xiao, L., & Xue, P. (2018). Violations of a Leggett-Garg inequality without signaling for a photonic qutrit probed with ambiguous measurements. Physical Review A, 97(2), Article 020101(R). https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.97.020101

We realize a quantum three-level system with photons distributed among three different spatial and polarization modes. Ambiguous measurements of the state of the qutrit are realized by blocking one out for the three modes at any one time. Using these...

Elitzur and Vaidman have proposed a measurement scheme that, based on the quantum superposition principle, allows one to detect the presence of an object—in a dramatic scenario, a bomb—without interacting with it. It was pointed out by Ghirardi that... Read More about Atomic "bomb testing": The Elitzur-Vaidman experiment violates the Leggett-Garg inequality.
