We present a quantum information theoretic version of the Klein-Nishina formula. This formulation singles out the quantity, the a priori visibility, that quantifies the ability to deduce the polarisation property of single photons. The Kraus-type structure allows a straightforward generalisation to the multiphoton cases, relevant in the decay of positronium which is utilized e.g. for metabolic PET-imaging (Positron- Emission- Tomograph). Predicted by theory but never experimentally proven, the two- or three-photon states should be entangled. We provide an experimentally feasible method to witness entanglement for these processes via MUBs (Mutually Unbiased Bases), exploiting Bohr's complementarity. Last but not least we present explicit cases exemplifying the interrelation of geometry and entanglement including relations to its potentiality for teleportation schemes or Bell inequality violations or in future for detecting cancer in human beings.

We place Loudon's quantum treatment of optical phase in in its historical context, and outline research that it inspired. We show how it led Pegg and Barnett to their quantum phase formalism, explaining the challenges that they overcame to define phase operators and phase eigenstates rigorously. We show how the formalism essentially constructs an extended rigged Hilbert space that supports strong limits of the phase operators and includes their eigenstates.

The marginal inference of an outcome variable can be improved by closely related covariates with a structured distribution. This differs from standard covariate adjustment in randomized trials, which exploits covariate-treatment independence rather than knowledge on the covariate distribution. Yet it can also be done robustly against misspecification of the outcome-covariate relationship.

Nanotechnology and machine learning (ML) are rapidly emerging fields with numerous real-world applications in medicine, materials science, computer engineering, and data processing. ML enhances nanotechnology by facilitating the processing of dataset in nanomaterial synthesis, characterization, and optimization of nanoscale properties. Conversely, nanotechnology improves the speed and efficiency of computing power, which is crucial for ML algorithms.

Quantum incompatibility, referred as the phenomenon that some quantum measurements cannot be performed simultaneously, is necessary for various quantum information processing tasks, such as nonlocality and steering. When these applications come to high-dimensional multimeasurement scenarios, it is crucial and challenging to witness the incompatibility of measurements with complex structures. To address this problem, we propose a modified quantum state discrimination protocol that decomposes complex compatibility structures into pairwise ones and employs noise robustness to bound incompatibility structures.

The superposition of causal orders shows promise in various quantum technologies. However, the fragility of quantum systems arising from environmental interactions, leading to dissipative behavior and irreversibility, demands a deeper understanding of the possible instabilities in the coherent control of causal orders. In this work, we employ a collisional model to investigate the impact of an open control system on the generation of interference between two causal orders.
