- Abstract: We give a review of the tomographic probability representation of quantum
mechanics. We present the formalism of quantum states and quantum observables
using the formalism of standard probability distributions and classical-like
random variables. We study the coherent and number states of photons in the
probability representation and obtain the evolution equation and energy spectra
in the form of equations for probability distributions.

We experimentally generate entangled photonic modes by continuously exciting a quantum emitter, a superconducting qubit, with a coherent drive.
We show that entanglement is generated between modes extracted from the two sidebands of the resonance fluorescence spectrum.
Our approach can be utilized to distribute entanglement at a high rate in various physical platforms.

Two particles are identical if all their intrinsic properties, such as spin and charge, are the same.
Quantum mechanics is seen as a normative and algorithmic theory guiding an agent to assess her subjective beliefs represented as (coherent) sets of gambles.
We show how sets of exchangeable observables (gambles) may be updated after a measurement and discuss the issue of defining entanglement for indistinguishable particle systems.
