Theory of neutrino detection: flavor oscillations and weak values
We revisit the theory of neutrino oscillations and describe it through the formalism of weak measurements with postselection. It is well understood that due to the large momentum uncertainty in detection, there is no collapse of the neutrino wavefunction

Weak value amplification is a measurement technique where small quantum mechanical interactions are amplified and manifested macroscopically in the output of a measurement apparatus.

Quantum Beam Scattering—Beam’s Coherence Length, Which-Path Information and Weak Values
The conventional theory of neutron beams interacting with many-body systems treats the beam as a classical system, i.e., with its dynamical variables appearing in the quantum dynamics of the scattering process not as operators but only as c-numbers ...

Grounding Bohmian Mechanics in Weak Values and Bayesianism [PDF]
Bohmian mechanics (BM) is a popular interpretation of quantum mechanics in which particles have real positions. The velocity of a point x in configuration space is defined as the standard probability current j(x) divided by the probability density P(x ...

Weak and Strong Limit Values [PDF]
The classical results about the boundary values of holomorphic or harmonic functions on a domain $D$ state that under additional integrability assumptions these functions have limits along specific sets approaching boundary. The proofs of these results are based on properties of smooth boundaries used to define the approach regions and on estimates of ...

Where Photons Have Been: Nowhere Without All Components of Their Wavefunctions
A nested interferometer experiment by Danan et al. is discussed and some claims are evaluated concerning the whereabouts of the photon, primarily within the context of time-symmetric interpretations of quantum theory, including the Two-State Vector ...

Past of a quantum particle: old problem with recent controversies
Time-symmetric formulation of quantum mechanics—the two-state vector formalism—is presented as a tool for studying past behaviour of quantum systems. A role of weak measurement and weak values in the Cheshire Cat effect and a nested (Vaidman) three-path ...

Comment on “Weak values and the past of a quantum particle”
In a recent paper, Hance et al. [Phys. Rev. Res. 5, 023048 (2023)2643-156410.1103/PhysRevResearch.5.023048] criticized recent proposals connecting weak values and the past of a quantum particle.

Weak Values and Quantum Properties [PDF]
We investigate in this work the meaning of weak values through the prism of property ascription in quantum systems. Indeed, the weak measurements framework contains only ingredients of the standard quantum formalism, and as such weak measurements are from a technical point of view uncontroversial.
