Abstract: We demonstrate that for two canonically conjugate operators $hatq,hatp$,the global correlation $langlehatqhatp+hatphatqangle-2langlehatqanglelanglehatpangle$, and the local correlations $langlehatqangle(p)-langlehatqangle$ and $langlehatpangle(q)-langlehatpangle$ can be measured exactly by Von Neumann-Arthurs-Kelly joint quadrature measurements . These correlations provide a sensitive experimental test of quantum phase space probabilities quite distinct from the probability densities of $q,p$. E.g. for EPR states, and entangled generalized coherent states, phase space probabilities which reproduce the correct position and momentum probability densities have to be modified to reproduce these correlations as well.
