Reconstructing weak values without weak measurements
I propose a scheme for reconstructing the weak value of an observable without the need for weak measurements. The post-selection in weak measurements is replaced by an initial projector measurement. The observable can be measured using any form of interaction, including projective measurements. The reconstruction is effected by measuring the change in the expectation value of the observable due...
متن کاملWeak-values technique for velocity measurements.
In a recent Letter, Brunner and Simon proposed an interferometric scheme using imaginary weak values with a frequency-domain analysis to outperform standard interferometry in longitudinal phase shifts [Phys. Rev. Lett105, 010405 (2010)]. Here we demonstrate an interferometric scheme combined with a time-domain analysis to measure longitudinal velocities. The technique employs the near-destructi...
متن کاملPrecision frequency measurements with interferometric weak values
We demonstrate an experiment which utilizes a Sagnac interferometer to measure a change in optical frequency of 129 ± 7 kHz/√Hz with only 2 mW of continuous-wave, single-mode input power. We describe the measurement of a weak value and show how even higher-frequency sensitivities may be obtained over a bandwidth of several nanometers. This technique has many possible applications, such as preci...
متن کاملWeak Value and Weak Measurements
The weak value of a variable O is a description of an effective interaction with that variable in the limit of weak coupling. For a pre-and post-selected system described at time t by the two-state vector Φ| |Ψ (see entry Two-State Vector Formalism), the weak value is [1]: O w ≡ Φ|O|Ψ Φ|Ψ. (1) Contrary to classical physics, variables in quantum mechanics might not have definite values at a give...
متن کاملz-weak ideals and prime weak ideals
In this paper, we study a generalization of z-ideals in the ring C(X) of continuous real valued functions on a completely regular Hausdorff space X. The notion of a weak ideal and naturally a weak z-ideal and a prime weak ideal are introduced and it turns out that they behave such as z-ideals in C(X).
