Abstract:We study amplitude-squared squeezing of the Hermitian operator Zθ=Z1 cosθ+Z2 sin θ, in the most general superposition state $\left| \psi \right\rangle =C_1 \left| \alpha \right\rangle +C_2 \left| 
\beta \right\rangle $ , of two coherent states $\left| \alpha \right\rangle $ and $\left| \beta \right\rangle $ . Here operators Z1,2 are defined by $Z_{1 }+ i Z_{2 }=a-\left\langle \psi \right|a\left| \psi 
\right\rangle ]^2$ , a is annihilation operator, θ is angle, and complex numbers C1,2 , α, β are arbitrary and only restriction on these is the normalization condition of the state $\left| 
\psi \right\rangle $ . We define the condition for a state $\left| \psi 
\right\rangle $ to be amplitude-squared squeezed for the operator Zθ if squeezing parameter $S\equiv \left\langle \psi 
\right|(\Delta Z_\theta )^{2}\left| \psi \right\rangle 
-\left\langle \psi \right|N\left| \psi \right\rangle +\left\langle \psi 
\right|a\left| \psi \right\rangle \left\langle \psi \right|a^+\left| \psi 
\right\rangle ]<\frac{1}{2}$ , where N=a+a and $\Delta Z_\theta =Z_\theta 
-\left\langle \psi \right|Z_\theta \left| \psi \right\rangle $ . We find maximum amplitude-squared squeezing of Zθ in the superposed coherent state $\left| \psi \right\rangle $ with minimum value 0.3268 of the parameter S for an infinite combinations with α- β= 2.16 exp ±i(π/4) + iθ/2], $C_2 /C_1 =0.3 \exp 
\frac{1}{2}(\alpha \beta ^\ast -\alpha ^\ast \beta )]$ and with arbitrary values of (α+β) and θ. For this minimum value of squeezing parameter S, the expectation value of photon number can vary from the minimum value 1.0481 to infinity. Variations of the parameter S with different variables at maximum amplitude-squared squeezing are also discussed.
