Optical weak measurements are a powerful tool for measuring small shifts of optical paths. When applied to the measurement of the Goos-Haenchen shift, in particular, a special step must be added to its protocol: the removal of the relative…

It is well known that reflection of a Gaussian light beam ($\text{TEM}_{00}$) by a planar dielectric interface leads to four beam shifts when compared to the geometrical-optics prediction. These are the spatial Goos-H\"{a}nchen (GH) shift,…
