| Popis: | We introduce the concepts of dual instruments and sub-observables. We show that although a dual instruments measures a unique observable, it determines many sub-observables. We define a unique minimal extension of a sub-observable to an observable and consider sequential products and conditioning of sub-observables. Sub-observable effect algebras are characterized and studied. Moreover, the convexity of these effect algebras is considered. The sequential product of instruments is discussed. These concepts are illustrated with many examples of instruments. In particular, we discuss L\"uders, Holero and constant state instruments. Various conjectures for future research are presented.
