11. The efficiency of the pulse to generate the pairs increases with its intensity. However, too high intensities, due to the unavoidable emergence of photon bunching, lower the visibilities of the multiphoton interference phenomena. For a discussion, see M. Żukowski, A. Zeilinger, M. A. Horne, and H. Weinfurter, Int. J. Theor. Phys. 38, 501 (1999); Z. Y. Ou, J.-K. Rhee, and L. J. Wang, Phys. Rev. A 60, 593 (1999).

16. To discriminate operationally two- and single-photon events, one can, e.g., split the incoming beam into n beams and place an ordinary detector (which cannot distinguish one- and two-photon events) in each of these beams. If n is sufficiently large, the probability of two photons to enter a single detector can be made arbitrarily small. This scheme does not work if the efficiency of the detectors is low. But this is a feature of all Bell-type experiments - the efficiency requirements are high.
