Detecting entanglement in two mode squeezed states by particle counting
  We present an entanglement criterion for two mode squeezed states which relies on particle counting only. The proposed inequality is optimal for the state under consideration and robust against particle losses up to 2/3. As it does not involve measurements of quadratures - which is typically very challenging for atomic modes - it renders the detection of atomic many-particle entanglement feasible in many different settings. Moreover it bridges the gap between entanglement verification for a qubit and criteria for continuous variables measured by homodyne detection. We illustrate its application in the context of superradiant light scattering from Bose Einstein condensates by considering the creation of entanglement between atoms and light as well as between two condensates in different momentum states. The latter scheme takes advantage of leaving the Gaussian realm and features probabilistic entanglement distillation.
