The passage around this formula

…carrier; a bounded-size probe transmits a frame with a fidelity that improves with the carrier’s own total angular momentum but never reaches unity at finite size [ 10 ] . Restricting to one axis keeps the generator J^\hat J a single Hermitian operator with a single real eigenvalue spectrum, which is exactly the structure the quantum Cramér-Rao bound below is built for; nothing in the argument that follows depends on stopping at one axis, and a full three-axis version would simply replace a single Fisher…
