In physics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment in which a cat is trapped in a box with a particle that has a 50-50 chance of decaying. If the particle decays, the cat dies; otherwise, the cat ...

In quantum physics, the idea is that there are a number of possibilities for the state, location, or other properties of various ultra-tiny particles, but those do not solidify into one thing until ...

In 1935, Austrian physicist Erwin Schrodinger devised a thought experiment to highlight a paradox seen in quantum mechanics where something can live in two states at once. In Schrodinger's test, we're ...
