A new nonclassicality measure for the quantum states of a bosonic field

We review a recently proposed measure of the nonclassicality of a bosonic field, based on the sensitivity of its quasi-probability distributions to ordering of the creation and annihilation operators. We illustrate the new measure by several concrete examples and show its advantages compared to othe...
