Here, we introduce the coincidence wavefront sensing (CWS) method to reconstruct the phase of the multiphoton transverse spatial wave function. The spatially resolved coincidence photon counting is involved. Numerical simulations of two-photon cases using the weak measurement wavefront sensor are performed to test its correctness, and the phase information hidden in the correlation are revealed. Our work provides a direct spatial way to characterize multipartite quantum systems, and leads to fundamental studies like experimental Bohmian mechanics and applications in quantum optical technologies.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.00236v3","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2304.00236v3.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"reconstructing-the-multiphoton-spatial-wave","repo_url":"https://github.com/klqicwsns/cwsns","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
