Quantum discord is known as a general measure for quantum correlations in bipartite systems. It encompasses all nonclassical correlations including entanglement. Quantum discord has many intriguing fundamental properties many of which require experimental verification such as the asymptotic robustness towards environmental noise. We experimentally investigate quantum discord in propagating two-mode squeezed (TMS) microwave states generated with the help of superconducting Josephson parametric amplifiers. We exploit asymmetric noise injection into these TMS states which allows us to demonstrate the robustness of quantum discord as opposed to the sudden death of entanglement. Finally, we discuss the relevance of quantum discord as a resource in quantum communication and sensing , in particular with respect to remote state preparation and quantum radar protocols.

We acknowledge support by the Excellence Cluster MCQST, the Elite Network of Bavaria through the program ExQM, and the European Union via the Quantum Flagship project QMiCS (Grant No. 820505).
