Abstract

Quantum temporal peculiarities, involving ordinary and weak measurements, are explored. We introduce the foundations of weak measurement and outline some novel theoretical and experimental predictions derived from it. We then show how weak values, which explicitly depend on both forward and backward evolving state-vectors, can serve as important tools for gaining new insights into the nature of time.
