Abstract:
An optimal compatible measurement, in the sense of the mean-square error, of canonical
variables p and q is found. It is shown that this measurement is described by an operator-valued measure defined by a family of coherent states. Problems of optimal measurements
of the parameters of quasifree states are also considered.
