Quantum Steering (spatial and temporal)

(Quantum steering refers to the ability to perform a measurement on one side of an entangled system with different outcomes leading to different sets of states for another part of the entangled system arbitrarily far away. This purely quantum phenomena has no classical analogue. It is closely related to entanglement and Bell nonlocality. Temporal steering refers to steering a single system in time, and is partly inspired by the Leggett-Garg inequality, and its relationship to the Bell Inequality)
