abstract
Using an optical probe along with single photon detection we have performed effective phonon counting measurements of the acoustic emission and absorption processes in a nanomechanical resonator. Applying these measurements in a Hanbury Brown and Twiss set-up, phonon correlations of the nanomechanical resonator are explored from below to above threshold of a parametric instability leading to self-oscillation of the resonator. Discussion of the results in terms of a "phonon laser", and analysis of the sensitivity of the phonon counting technique are presented.

$\mathcal{PT}$-symmetry from Lindblad dynamics in an optomechanical system
The strong-to-weak coupling transition in optomechanical state transfer is interpreted as a passive PT-symmetry breaking transition, with exact Lindblad/non-Hermitian agreement only in the single-excitation subspace.
