{wiki=Weak_value}

In quantum mechanics, a "weak value" is a concept that arises in the context of weak measurements, which are a type of measurement that allows observers to extract information about a quantum system with minimal disturbance to the system itself. Weak values are defined in the context of a quantum measurement scenario involving a pre-selected and post-selected ensemble of quantum states.
