We show that k-point correlation measurements on output of a non-interacting, multimode random unitary allow to quantify the k-particle coherence of N ≥ k identical (bosonic or fermionic) particles. We establish a strictly monotonic relationship between k-particle coherence, the interference contrast in the experimentally accessible counting statistics, and the degree of the particles’ mutual distinguishability, as controlled by their internal degrees of freedom, given separable many-particle input states. Non-separability on input can be unveiled by comparison of correlation measurements of different orders.
