Panel (a) and (b): 3D and contour plots of the coarse grained coincidence counts \({\bar{R}}_{{\rm{BP}}}({\tau }_{1},{\tau }_{2})\) of Eq. (39) for the BP pure state \(|{{\rm{\Psi }}}_{S}^{(a)}\rangle \), in the generalized HOM scheme. Panel (c) and (d): 3D and contour plots of the coarse grained rates \({\bar{R}}_{{\rm{CP}}}({\tau }_{1},{\tau }_{2})\) of Eq. (40) associated with the CP signal. In all the plots the delays times have been rescaled by the inverse of the width ΔΩ− of the bi-photon spectrum, and the coincidence counts have been rescaled by their plateau values, i.e. respectively \({\bar{R}}_{{\rm{BP}}}(0,\infty )=1/2\) and \({\bar{R}}_{{\rm{CP}}}(0,\infty )={A}^{2}\). Besides, setting ΔΩ+ = ΔΩ−/5 means that Δω ≃ ΔΩ−/2 is applied in (c) and (d).
