Abstract

Description

Random-phase homodyne tomography of the field intensity is a concrete example of the Quantum Roulette of Helstrom. In this paper we give the explicit POM of such measurement and compare it with direct photodetection and heterodyne detection. Effects of nonunit quantum efficiency are also considered. Naimark extensions for the roulette POM are analyzed and its experimental realization is discussed.
