Experimental Observation of Anomalous Complementary Weak Values from Correlated Pairwise Two-State Vectors

Qian Xie, Liang Xu, Lijian Zhang

Weak values (WVs) arise from weak measurements performed within a time-symmetric formulation of quantum mechanics, where a system is both pre- and post-selected. Anomalous WVs that…
