Defense Intelligence Reference Document Quantum Tomography Of Negative Energy States In The Vacuum

Defense Intelligence Agency · 51 pages · text from the file's own layer

This Defense Intelligence Reference Document from the Defense Intelligence Agency is dated 11 January 2011. It was produced in FY 2010 under the Advanced Aerospace Weapons System Applications (AAWSA) Program. It reviews negative, or sub-vacuum, energy found in squeezed light and the Casimir effect, and explains quantum optical homodyne tomography as a way to measure and map that energy in the lab. It proposes balanced homodyne detector arrays that could help detect anomalous aerospace platforms using engineered spacetime propulsion.

Figure 5. Wigner Function of a Squeezed Vacuum. Wigner function (top) and quadrature
fluctuations (bottom). This shows the experimentally reconstructed Wigner function of a
significantly squeezed vacuum generated by parametric amplification (Sect. IIB-3). The noise
trace (bottom) shows a part of the experimental data used to reconstruct the depicted Wigner
function via optical homodyne tomography (courtesy of Ulf Leonhardt).
