Fundamental Studies of Photon Statistics

Abstract

The final technical report on research performed under the ONR contract 'Fundamental Studies of Photon Statistics', emphasizes some of the most interesting results obtained. They deal with non-classical interference, violations of locality, and the determination of the time interval between two photons with femtosecond accuracy. Some possibilities for a new type of optical communication channel were explored. The research resulted in 62 publications and 88 lectures or papers presented at scientific meetings and seminars. These are all listed. Seven graduate students completed Ph.D. degrees with support from the ONR contract. (EMK)
