Quasiprobabilities provide an intuitive means for characterizing quantum states. Here we present a unified framework that combines recent theoretical advances, and we discuss experimental implementations, such as the first reconstruction of entanglement quasiprobabilities.

Precise rotation measurements have broad applications. Some quantum states dramatically enhance sensitivities in estimating rotation angles around known axes. We present states that increase sensitivities in estimating both the orientation of an unknown rotation axis and the angle rotated about it.

The first quantum-enhanced interferometric timing measurement with a squeezed optical frequency comb was demonstrated. The timing resolution at 2 MHz was improved from a shot-noise limited value of (2.8 ± 0.1) × 10−20 s to (2.4 ± 0.1) × 10−20 s.
