Left: experimental obtained by PNR detection (green histograms) and theoretical expectations (blue lines). Right: posterior probabilities of ϕ for M = 4000 with on/off (red curve) and PNR (blue curve) detection. The experimental parameters are a = 1.12, b = 0.79, , γ = 0 (top row) and γ = π/4 (bottom row).
