Abstract
A general description of weak measurements is presented. The “weak value” of an operator in pre- and post-selected systems is described both mathematically and using physical arguments. An optical experiment in which a measurement of a weak value has been realized is described. The possible use of pre- and post-selection as a means to amplify and detect weak effects is also discussed.
