Summary: | In this work, a continuous variable quantum tomography is presented. This is done using two approaches, one using simulated data and another one using data from measurements performed in the laboratory. The Radon inverse transform, under the approximation of filtered back projection, alongside the details on the implementa- tion of balanced homodyne detection needed to perform the tomography are clearly explained. Density matrices in the quadrature and number representation are also obtained from the Wigner function. Additionally, complete documentation of the computational implementation and a user-friendly interface for the tomography is reported |
