Quantum-coherent mixtures of causal relations

The set of causal relations that can connect two systems is much richer in the quantum world. Here the authors show that it is possible to have a coherent mixture of a cause-effect and a common-cause mechanism between two systems, realizing this in a quantum optics experiment.
