In this paper, we show that weak values can also be measured using strong interaction accompanied by either a suitably prepared pointer state or quantum erasure. Presented theoretical derivations prove analytical equivalence of these approaches. Moreover, we have performed an experimental verification of our model on a linear-optical controlled phase gate. Our results open new ways of performing non-invasive quantum measurements without collapsing the measured system.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-03-01T19:45:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "weak measurement", "weak values", "measured system", "strong interaction", "performing non-invasive quantum measurements" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
