Abstract
The Klyshko advanced-wave picture is a well-known tool useful in the conceptualisation of parametric down-conversion (SPDC) experiments. Despite being well-known and understood, there have been few experimental demonstrations illustrating its validity. Here, we present an experimental demonstration of this picture using a time-gated camera in an image-based coincidence measurement. We show an excellent agreement between the spatial distributions as predicted by the Klyshko picture and those obtained using the SPDC photon pairs. An interesting speckle feature is present in the Klyshko predictive images due to the spatial coherence of the back-propagated beam in the multi-mode fibre. This effect can be removed by mechanically twisting the fibre, thus degrading the spatial coherence of the beam and time-averaging the speckle pattern, giving an accurate correspondence between the predictive and SPDC images.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
