• Abstract summary: We propose observable bounds for Gaussian illumination to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio. In the quantum regime using a two-mode squeezed vacuum state, our observable receiver outperforms the other feasible receivers. The corresponding observable cannot be implemented with heterodyne detections due to the additional vacuum noise.

• Abstract: We propose observable bounds for Gaussian illumination to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio, which minimizes the discrimination error between the presence and absence of a low-reflectivity target using Gaussian states. The observable bounds are achieved with mode-by-mode measurements. In the quantum regime using a two-mode squeezed vacuum state, our observable receiver outperforms the other feasible receivers whereas it cannot approach the quantum Chernoff bound. The corresponding observable cannot be implemented with heterodyne detections due to the additional vacuum noise. In the classical regime using a thermal state, a receiver implemented with a photon number difference measurement approaches its bound regardless of the signal mean photon number, while it asymptotically approaches the classical bound in the limit of a huge idler mean photon number.

  We show that non-Gaussian measurements can achieve near-optimal coherent state discrimination. We explicitly design two coherent state discrimination protocols based on non-Gaussian detection and unitary operations. Our results show that we can achieve error rates close to the Helstrom bound at low energies with continuously labelled measurements.

  Quantum illumination (QI) is the task of querying a scene using a transmitter probe whose quantum state is entangled with a reference beam retained in ideal storage. We show that in the limit of low transmitter brightness, high loss, and high thermal background, there is a factor of four improvement in the Chernoff exponent of the error probability in discriminating any number of apriori-known reflective targets.

  We show that signal-to-noise ratio and quantum Fisher information are equivalent to Quantum Illumination (QI) in the limit of zero object reflectivity. We further demonstrate this equivalence by investigating QI protocols employing non-Gaussian states, which are obtained by de-Gaussifying the two-mode squeezed vacuum state with photon addition and photon subtraction.

  Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) effect can lead to a perfect suppression of two-particle coincidences between the output ports of a balanced beam splitter. In this work, we demonstrate experimentally that the two-particle coincidence statistics of two bosons can instead be seamlessly tuned to substantial enhancement. Our findings reveal a new approach to harnessing non-Hermitian settings for the manipulation of multi-particle quantum states.

We conclude that states with strong Wigner negativity can be prepared at high rates by this technique under experimentally attainable conditions.
