• Abstract: The problem of resolving point-like light sources not only serves as a benchmark for optical resolution but also holds various practical applications ranging from microscopy to astronomy. In this research, we aim to resolve two thermal sources sharing arbitrary mutual coherence using the spatial mode demultiplexing technique. Our analytical study includes scenarios where the coherence and the emission rate depend on the separation between the sources, and is not limited to the faint sources limit. We consider the fluorescence of two interacting dipoles to demonstrate that the dependence of emission characteristics on the parameter of interest can boost the sensitivity of the estimation and noticeably prolong the duration of information decay.

  Most fusion methods solely focus on the fusion algorithm itself and overlook the degradation models. We propose physics-inspired degradation models (PIDM) to model the degradation of LR-HSI and HR-MSI. Our proposed PIDM can boost the fusion performance of existing fusion methods in practical scenarios.

  We investigate the resolution for imaging two pointlike entangled sources by using the method of the moments and the spatial-mode demultiplexing (SPADE) We demonstrate that the separation estimation sensitivity is mainly determined by the photon distribution in each detected modes. In the limiting case of infinitely small source separation, the usage of entangled sources can have better resolution than those using incoherent and coherent sources.

  Multi-photon interference is at the heart of photonic quantum technologies. Here, we experimentally demonstrate that detection can be implemented with a temporal resolution sufficient to interfere photons detuned on the scales necessary for cavity-based integrated photon sources. We show how time-resolved detection of non-ideal photons can be used to improve the fidelity of an entangling operation and to mitigate the reduction of computational complexity in boson sampling experiments.
