Abstract
Gravitational wave detectors based on laser interferometry have reached an incredible level of sensitivity. But to develop to the level needed to explore the Universe, the next generation of detectors will probably need to use squeezed light.

A quantum-enhanced prototype gravitational-wave detectorNature Physics Letter (01 Jun 2008)
Two independent experiments demonstrate that quantum entanglement that has been lost in decoherence processes can be recovered. For the first time such ?entanglement distillation? has been achieved for states of light that are entangled in continuous variables, which should help to increase the distance over which quantum information can be distributed.
