Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 200407 (2008) [4 pages]Discriminating Multipartite Entangled StatesReceived 3 January 2008; published 22 May 2008 The variety of multipartite entangled states enables numerous applications in novel quantum information tasks. In order to compare the suitability of different states from a theoretical point of view, classifications have been introduced. Accordingly, here we derive criteria and demonstrate how to experimentally discriminate an observed state against the ones of certain other classes of multipartite entangled states. Our method, originating in Bell inequalities, adds an important tool for the characterization of multiparty entanglement. © 2008 The American Physical Society URL:
