It would allow\nengineering of macroscopic quantum states of light in a wa y which is\npreserving specific superpositions. As a result\, it would enh ance\noptical phase estimation with these states. We propose an optical\ns cheme\, which is a relatively simple\, albeit non-ideal\, operational\nimp lementation of such a filter.\n DTSTAMP:20250522T155435Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
