Witnessing multi-observer steering on both sides simultaneously via weak measurements.

Abstract

The quantum steering as an intermediate form of quantum correlations, has various peculiarities differing from the Bell nonlocality and the quantum entanglement. In a specific scenario, each side of the observer shares one of the two entangled qubits, steering can be witnessed simultaneously between any two observers from different sides by performing weak or projective measurements successively, with independently chosen and unbiased inputs. Here, we demonstrate this steering scenario experimentally to simultaneously witness quartic Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steerings of two successive observers between each side with the entangled pair with a state fidelity of 97.6% compared with a maximally-entangled one.
