    Normalized distributions of the two-photon correlation probability Pm,n. (a)–(c) The input photon pair is |ϕ(−4,4)⟩ with g=0, g=2J, and g=10J, respectively. (d)–(f) The input photon pair is |ϕ(−15,−15)⟩ with g=0, g=2J, and g=10J, respectively. Positions inside two dashed lines correspond to Pm,m.
