  We have performed the first experimental tomographic reconstruction of a
three-photon polarization state. Quantum state tomography is a powerful tool
for fully describing the density matrix of a quantum system. We measured 64
three-photon polarization correlations and used a "maximum-likelihood"
reconstruction method to reconstruct the GHZ state. The entanglement class has
been characterized using an entanglement witness operator and the maximum
predicted values for the Mermin inequality was extracted.
