Biophotons, coherence and photocount statistics: A critical review

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the properties of weakphoton emission (UPE) from biological samples is presented, such as coherence and quality of light properties of UPE.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simple dead-time corrections for discrete time series of non-Poisson data

TL;DR: Using the formalism associated with the pair-correlation function, first-order correction expressions for the general case of arbitrary counting statistics are developed and verified through simulation of a realistic clustering scenario.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatial distributions of aerosol particles : Investigation of the Poisson assumption

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explicitly resolve the statistics of particle positions on a variety of temporal scales (over five orders of magnitude) to determine if and when the assumption of perfect spatial randomness can be justified in nature.
Book ChapterDOI

Photonic Astronomy and Quantum Optics

TL;DR: In this article, the first-order spatial and/or temporal coherence of light is measured in the statistics of photon arrival times, or in the amount of photon orbital angular momentum.
Journal ArticleDOI

Scale Localization of Cloud Particle Clustering Statistics

TL;DR: This paper seeks to clarify some pervasive misunderstandings about the relative scale-localizing capabilities of various commonly used statistical tools and to outline more carefully the range of validity for several of these statistical tools.

Nonclassical radiation from diamond nanocrystals

TL;DR: In this paper, the quantum properties of the fluorescence light emitted by diamond nanocrystals containing a single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) colored center are investigated, and it is shown that such a system is a very good candidate for the production of single photon on demand.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluctuations of Photon Beams: The Distribution of the Photo-Electrons

TL;DR: In this article, the probability distribution p(n, T) of the number of counts n from a photoelectric detector illuminated by coherent light for a time T is studied, by associating photons stochastically with Gaussian random waves.
Journal ArticleDOI

Theory of Electromagnetic Field Measurement and Photoelectron Counting

TL;DR: In this article, a probability theory involving multitime joint probability functions for a sequence of photoionizations is formulated, and approximate expressions for this probability function are derived for the photoionization detector and the electromagnetic field-plus-source.
