    "abstract": "We give a quantum information-theoretic description of an ideal propagating\nCW laser field and reinterpret typical quantum-optical experiments in light of\nthis. In particular we show that contrary to recent claims [T. Rudolph and B.\nC. Sanders, Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 077903 (2001)], a conventional laser can be\nused for quantum teleportation with continuous variables and for generating\ncontinuous-variable entanglement. Optical coherence is not required, but phase\ncoherence is. We also show that coherent states play a priveleged role in the\ndescription of laser light.",
