A visual illustration of a bright squeezed vacuum—a quantum state of light characterized by an exceptionally high level of noise—as it interferes with a regular laser pulse at a beam splitter. By recording the resulting interference patterns, the real-time characteristics of the laser pulse can be reconstructed.
