Schrödinger's cat highlights a long-standing dilemma in quantum mechanics: is the cat really alive and dead, or is the weirdness just in our head? Researchers at The University of Queensland have now ...

(Phys.org) —Schrödinger's famous thought experiment in which a cat hidden in a box can be both dead and alive at the same time demonstrates the concept of superposition on the macroscopic scale.

Recent experiments have begun to demonstrate how the weird world of quantum mechanics gives way to the familiarity of everyday experience Editor’s note (10/9/2012): We are making the text of this ...

Schrödinger’s cat, famously, is both alive and dead – but what if it could be something else as well? Researchers at the University of Oxford have discovered not one but an entire family of weird ...
