• Abstract: Heralding, which is often used for preparing quantum optical states, is studied to determine the effects of the spatiotemporal properties of the process. Incorporating all the spatiotemporal degrees of freedom, we follow a Wigner functional approach to consider cases where these states are prepared to have Wigner functionals with negative regions, being suitable resources for quantum information technologies. General expressions are derived for single-photon-subtracted and single-photon-added states. As examples, we consider the photon-subtracted squeezed vacuum state, the photon-added coherent state, and the photon-added thermal state. The Wigner functional approach reveals the importance of the spatiotemporal transformations imposed by the experimental conditions.

  We consider an ensemble of Alkali atoms that are continuously optically pumped and probed. Due to the collective scattering of photons at large optical depth, the steady state of atoms does not correspond to an uncorrelated tensor-product state. We find and characterize regimes of Raman lasing, akin to the model of a superradiant laser.

  We propose applying time-dependent photo-emission spectroscopy, an established tool in solid state systems, in cold atom quantum simulators. We show in exact diagonalization simulations of the one-dimensional $t-J$ model that the spinons start to populate previously unoccupied states in an effective band structure. The dependence of the spectral function on the time after the pump pulse reveals collective interactions among spinons.

  Non-Gaussian states of an optical field are important as a proposed resource in quantum information applications. We propose a novel approach involving displacement of the ancilla field into the regime where mesoscopic detectors can be used. We conclude that states with strong Wigner negativity can be prepared at high rates by this technique under experimentally attainable conditions.
